«Calling all writers! Last Friday, 3,338 of you took The Met! Now, take The Met's Teen Blog, written by teens, for teens!»
One of the best parts of my job is reviewing the amazing writing by teens for our Teen Blog posts. In the past, teens have reviewed an exhibition, researched a favorite artwork, featured their own poems or artwork alongside inspirations from the collection, or shared their experience participating in a Teen Program. The most intriguing posts start with your passion; whether it's bees, baseball, Buddhism, or the brain, I encourage every teen to write about what interests or excites you most as it relates to The Met!
