Community Outreach
NYFA has several community outreach program partnerships through which we provide opportunities
for students and alumni to volunteer, mentor and share their creative and civic talents with our local community. The goal is to increase inclusion of underrepresented voices in the visual, performing, and cinematic arts, while giving back to our greater community, all under the umbrella of “service learning.” Students and
alumni in good standing are afforded an opportunity
to mentor youth, and work on creative projects with organizations including the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Young Storytellers Foundation, The Actors’ Fund, Actors for Autism, Hands4Hope, Urban Possibilities, the Bill Duke Foundation, and the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Los Angeles.
