MacArthur, Digital Youth Network & Chicago Public Library launch “YouMedia” digital youth center

Posted on August 21, 2009 by

Check out this cool video about the launch of the "YouMedia" youth media center in downtown Chicago. A partnership of the MacArthur Foundation, the Digital Youth Network and the Chicago Public Library, YouMedia is a digital learning space where young people from all over Chicago can come together to create and collaborate across a range of digital media, from music to video to games. 

As a nerdy child who spent most of his childhood in the local public library, I'm very envious of these teens!
