The Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico will continue its Art and Technology for Youth at Risk initiative which provides learning opportunities for at-risk young adults by integrating museum programming and exhibits, and partner organization programming, into an afterschool program. This initiative offers students a space for developing lifelong learning skills that encourage productive citizenship. In collaboration with the Puerto Rico Judicial Branch, a school serving low-income families, and the YWCA, the afterschool program will bring together a team of educational professionals to provide opportunities for the development of students' art, technical, interpersonal, and motivational skills. Program activities and outcomes, such as using technology to create art, literacy narratives, and photography, will be driven by academic standards, including math, fine arts, written communications, and reading comprehension and analysis.
