Emergencia Youth Film Program Summer 2024 Workshops

Cine Las Americas has partnered with AISD and local filmmakers to present free workshops at Mendez Middle School’s Community Love Hub. These summer classes are part of CLA’s Emergencia Youth Film Program which first began in 2003 at Johnston High School. We are excited to return to teaching our youth about the magic of creative expression through cinema! If you would like to help, support this project with a donation!
