Guided by a master teacher, Young Critics participants meet at BAM to engage in lively workshops that focus on the relationship between the performing arts and criticism. Students will attend performances by some of the world's most accomplished artists at BAM.
In addition to attending performances and writing workshops, students meet with professional writers and artists.
