Teen Arts Week is NYC’s only citywide celebration of the arts for teens.

Launched by 92NY’s Teen Producers in 2019, Teen Arts Week celebrates the best of arts programing for teens around NYC! In collaboration with leading cultural organizations in all five boroughs, Teen Arts Week offered a full schedule of free workshops, experiences, and performances for teens all over the city. These events enabled teens to gain hands-on experience in different areas of the arts, engage with professionals in creative industries, and explore pathways to future engagement and leadership.

Check out the full list of organizations that participated in this year’s festival below! The full 2025 lineup is coming soon!

“Teen Arts Week impacts so many young people across NYC, probably more than these organizations know (take it from a teen). Please keep it as a tradition within the NYC Arts community!”
