Program Dates for Fall, 2024

The Teen DocAuthors Fellowship (TDA) is a free after-school film program for students and young people between the ages of 13-19. We may also welcome any student in their freshman year of college or in transition. The program runs weekly on Tuesdays from 4-7pm.

Sessions will take place in person at Maysles Documentary Center (343 Malcolm X Boulevard) or partner organizations, and zoom can be accommodating in unique circumstances if specialized needs are communicated and approved.

Submissions are being accepted now, and all applicants will be notified on a rolling basis. Contact us using this form.
