The new yorker
COURSE OVERVIEW
We had the opportunity to experience and live life like a true New Yorker, all while earning a credit!
This interdisciplinary program teaches students to think outside of the traditional classroom lens and see how English, History, and The Arts are all intertwined. All three subjects will come alive in the city that never sleeps! Dive into the artistic paradise of all five boroughs. Gaze upon the artistic masterpieces of Van Gogh, Dali and Picasso at the Museum of Modern Art, and see artistic wonders from across the globe at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Let your dreams of Hollywood come to life through an experiential workshop for film and television at the Museum of Moving Image in Queens. Become a theatre critic, movie director, and marketing expert with engaging assignments around New York City.
