Arts Journalism Trust

Description

Arts Journalism Trust emerged to address:
* increased interest in arts and creativity among young people,
* precipitous decline in arts education,
* continued inequities in access to the arts and media by marginalized populations, and
* decreased arts coverage, which has suffered as the journalism industry faced setbacks with the rise of global technology.

Our teen-centered journalism platform and program Arts Angle Vantage elevates the voices of young people to help youth better understand themselves, others, and the world around them. These voices, represented by a diversity of participants, are central to our work. This collaborative work fosters greater community-wide awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the local arts landscape as journalistic work by participating youth is published in Arts Angle Vantage and collaborating journalistic outlets.
