Applications are now open for the Level Up Academy, a summer podcast intensive created by the VPM + ICA Community Media Center to provide high quality teaching and opportunities for young adults in Richmond.
The program, which launched last year, is seeking 15 Richmond students age 17 to 22 for its two-week session. Participating students will be offered travel support, receive lunch every day of the program and receive a $500 stipend.
Those who complete the program will graduate with an audio project that can be used when applying to college or other ventures. Participants also will receive assistance when applying to college.
Sessions are currently scheduled from Tuesday, June 20, to Friday, June 30, and from Monday, July 3, to Friday, July 14. Applications must be completed before Saturday, April 15.
