KIDS CONNECT
Kids Connect, a project of the nonprofit ZoomLab, is a program for young
people in multiple locations, teaching them to connect and work together
via performance, storytelling and collaboration by theatrical and digital
means. In their pilot program, participants created a hybrid city and a
performance with
other students in New York and Amsterdam on Kids Connect Island on the
teen grid. Upcoming plans include hosting a series of virtual forums that
coincide with United Nations conferences involving simultaneous
conferences and activities in the teen grid as a way to raise awareness
and get teens involved in UN issues, as well as another program connecting
underserved youth in New York and Amsterdam, and a new program connecting
youth in Florida and Spain, via collaborative building and
theater-inspired techniques.

students went to different sites around Manhattan that had Dutch
history (i.e., Wall Street, Stadt Huys block, South William Street,
Battery Park) and captured video/sound to use for digital
storytelling
