MoMA Teens-in-Residence is a paid enrichment program for NYC high school students in 10th through 12th grade that offers a deep dive into the inner workings of an art museum and the broader art world.
Each week, Teen Residents connect with artists and museum professionals, participate in hands-on workshops, and help plan public programs—all while exploring the role of art and museums in their communities. From leading gallery experiences to developing a collaborative public project, Teen Residents gain real-world experience, build essential skills like communication and creative thinking, and contribute meaningfully to MoMA’s Learning and Engagement initiatives. The program creates meaningful pathways for teens to actively contribute to MoMA—fostering college preparedness, workplace readiness, and career exploration.
