*What Is the Muslim Youth Voices Project?*
Muslim Youth Voices Project (MYVP) offers a seven-day workshop that gives
Muslim youth of all backgrounds the tools to tell their stories, on their
terms, through filmmaking.
Developed and led by experienced film professionals from the Muslim
community, this workshop provides a safe, sensitive space for
self-expression and exploration. Through weeklong intensives, students will
gain an in-depth appreciation of storytelling and have the opportunity to
create their own short films with the help of a professional film crew.
Who is behind MYVP?
Muslim Youth Voices Project is a national initiative of the Center for
Asian American Media (CAAM). Founded in 1980, CAAM is a media arts
organization dedicated to presenting stories that convey the richness and
diversity of American experiences to the largest broadest audience
possible. Through this three-year initiative, CAAM hopes to amplify young
people’s expression and celebration of Muslim cultures by giving them the
essential tools to tell their stories and the stories of their
communities—stories often invisible to the national public. MYVP is made
possible by a grant from the Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art.
*Lead Instructor Bio: Musa Syeed*
Musa Syeed's first feature film, VALLEY OF SAINTS, won the 2012 Audience
Award at the Sundance Film Festival. He has taught film for Williams
College and the Tribeca Film Institute. Syeed was a Fulbright Fellow in
Egypt and is an alumnus of the Tisch School of the Arts and the Middle
Eastern & Islamic Studies Department at New York University.
How can I join?
Over 3 years, we are running workshops in 6 different cities.
Our Minneapolis workshop is now accepting applications for this summer.
Muslim youth ages 14 to 18, from all ethnic backgrounds, are eligible to
apply for this free program.
Please complete the application form <http://caamedia.org/muslim-youth/> by

MYVP or this workshop, please email: <email obscured>
