Arlington Independent Media

Arlington Independent Media is thrilled to offer a brand new slate of summer media camps for kids ages 10-14.

At AIM, we want to change the way youth relate to media. Using the language of the YouTubers, TikTokers, and podcasters they love, we’ll give kids the camera and mic—transforming them from passive consumers into active media creators. Crucially, we'll also show them how to decode the array of media messages around them.

Working collaboratively under the guidance of specialized instructors and active media professionals, your child will learn important communication, media literacy, and critical thinking skills through fun, hands-on projects. They’ll come away with professional media production techniques that will set them up to tell the stories that matter most to them. Students can specialize for a week in either Video Storytelling or Radio/Podcasting, or take them both back-to-back as a two-week intensive—putting them on a path to become master media-makers!

Ages 10 - 14.

Volunteer and employment opportunities for teens!
