YOUTH PROGRAMS Youth Programs at The Warhol focus on working with small groups of young people to foster leadership with creative skills and to offer relevant programming to a teen audience. Warhol's work provides a unique and engaging model for youth that maintains a relevant link to the emerging present. Young people continue to be interested in and influenced by the unique scene he created, his experimentation with diverse media and disciplines, and his manipulations of pop culture - all vital models of creativity. YOUTH INVASION Submit your designs and apply to the Youth Invasion fashion show! Submissions should relate to popular culture, the mass media, or experimentation. We encourage young artists and designers to submit work that reflects their own interests, contemporary pop culture and media. We actually prefer not to get work that directly copies Andy Warhol’s work. >THE FASHION SHOW APPLICATION Youth Art at the Warhol Submit your artwork for possible inclusion in Youth Invasion! Selected artworks will be exhibited in the museum, alongside the work of Andy Warhol, for a month. We’re looking for submissions that feature teens’ unique artistic take on Andy Warhol, as expressed in paintings, video, audio, printmaking, performance, and more. Artwork that takes a fresh spin on Warhol/Pop Culture or is experimental in nature is encouraged. This can and should be taken loosely—we are NOT looking for work that directly copies Warhol. Past successful projects have included silkscreened washing machines, sculptural environments, performance videos, and large-scale photos of silkscreened bodies. Youth Publications at The Andy Warhol Museum is an after school program exploring digital and traditional publishing skills. The museum hires and trains Student Assistants -- area high school students ages 15 and up who have a strong commitment to or interest in the arts -- to immerse themselves in a variety of media. In addition to creating Urban Interview, a magazine inspired by Warhol's Interview, students also learn how to make hand-made zines, silkscreens, web pages and podcasts.
