The Paley Center for Media Presents the 11th Annual Urban Visionaries Youth Film Festival: A unique film festival created and curated by teens for teens on April 10th and April 11th, 2008.

The Urban Visionaries Youth Film Festival – which marks its 11th anniversary this year – will take place on April 10th and April 11th at The Paley Center for Media, formerly The Museum of Television & Radio, in Manhattan. The festival showcases fiction, documentary, and experimental videos created by young filmmakers that explore issues effecting young people today. All the work screened in the festival is created by teens; entries are reviewed and selected by a volunteer committee of young people who critique and celebrate the work of their peers.

Urban Visionaries is a collaboration between youth media makers and educators from New York City's premiere media literacy organizations, including Downtown Community TV (DCTV), The Educational Video Center, Ghetto Film School, Global Action Project, Listen Up!, Manhattan Neighborhood Network's Youth Channel, Reel Works, T.R.U.C.E., and The Paley Center for Media.
