Action Youth Media 2024 Season Showcase
Saturday | November 9 | 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
AFI Silver Theatre | 8633 Colesville Road, Silver Spring, MD 20910
Each year, Action Youth Media (AYM) takes time to recognize the accomplishments of our incredible students. Our Showcase is a celebration of the work they’ve created throughout the year. It’s important to us that they can celebrate their achievements in a professional theatre setting.
We will be viewing films from our Takoma Park film camp programs, our spring and summer intern programs, and class projects from our semester classes. The presentations will be followed by a Q&A with the students who created these projects and some special guests. There will also be a display of work from our photography students in the lobby.
