We love the New York Public Library’s Anti-Proms , which provide an alternative, safe space regardless of sexuality, gender identity, and any other reason for NYC teens. Charge an entry fee to cover both a fun low-key activity (pub crawl, wine tasting, bowling league) and babysitting services and bring your community together.

By a strange and lucky coincidence, I was at the Experience Music Project and Science Fiction Museum (EMPSFM) in Seattle for a two-day workshop. I agree that most museums do not actively and aggressively seek out ways to truly serve the needs of their visitor communities (as opposed to donor communities). Probably not.

Everything about the event--from the time slot to the tone of the content to the music played--was designed for that audience. Performances just for teens. It turned out that there were many different kinds of people who were excited about an active, adventurous approach to history. Late night mixers at museums for young adults.

Side Trip is an immersive environment full of interactive experiences that let visitors share their own stories of the 1960s, make their own rock posters, and explore the music and vibe of the time. The primary interactive activity is one in which visitors can make their own rock posters. It is an incredible museum experience.

Sure, it's social, but people stick to their own "pods"--families, teens, adults--and don't diverge or merge. Out on the boardwalk, or at the zoo or a museum, there's a common experience of the sights, sounds, smells, activities of the place. Step 3: a successful "five" is given. Why does this happen? You'd have to do it face to face.

I watched many entertaining shorts featuring students explaining exhibits to the beat of popular and illegally uploaded music. When I watch the videos teens created at the Exploratorium and post on YouTube, I see the aspects of the exhibits they thought were most important to share with their classmates. You need a listening machine.

This seems a little ungenerous to museums; while institutions may bestow more love upon wealthy, elderly donors than the general visiting public, museums have actively courted mass audiences for years. We're always happy for more bodies in the door, but if supporting teens means alienating seniors, there's a problem.

A group in their late teens/early 20s were wandering through the museumwide exhibition on love. When I walked by the first time, the teens were collaging and Kyle and Stacey were talking. I don't know what formed the bridge between the artists and the teens in this circumstance. Kyle had brought his baby with him.

The recent flurry of restrictions that has sent teens fleeing? But I don't think it's good when people engage in these activities unwittingly; that is, when they do so without understanding the full implications of their web presence. When you think of MySpace, what is the first thing that comes to mind? The irritating design?

The idea there is a partnership where we will cultivate up to five acres of land, and have a real, sort of larger farm, an extension of our urban activity on a peri-urban basis, on the periphery of the urban area. We do a lot of work with teens in the summertime. We have a program called, "Collards and Commerce."

Maybe it's a live music concert, or a museum visit, or a play. Museums and other venues are offering special programs for teens, for hipsters, for people who want a more active or spiritual or participatory experience. Others layer these new activities and audiences on through monthly late nights or short-term installations.

So I can tell y’all that stuff, y’all, but I’ll tell you my most important job and how I really, really learned to hone my leadership skills was as solo mama to this teen who, my friends, she has the mack daddy of all summer jobs. And so I invite you to join us for our retreat, which is in two weeks. It’s virtual.

If you have a tween or a teen, I’m sure you’re familiar with TikTok. But what works best, music, humor, entertainment, surprise, relatability. It’s focused on music and video effects. There’s differences in the duet feature on TikTok and music that’s available on TikTok. Okay, TikTok now.
