TEENTIX PRESS CORPS: THE PRESS CORPS PROMOTES CRITICAL THINKING, COMMUNICATION, AND INFORMATION LITERACY THROUGH ARTS CRITICISM AND JOURNALISM PRACTICE FOR TEENS. SINCE 2006, SOME OF THE CITY'S MOST TALENTED PROFESSIONAL ARTS CRITICS FROM THE SEATTLE TIMES, THE STRANGER, SEATTLE GLOBALIST AND MORE HAVE TAUGHT OVER 550 TEENS THROUGH WORKSHOPS AND INTENSIVES FOCUSED ON ARTS CRITICISM TRAINING, RESULTING IN OVER 450 REVIEWS OF ARTS AND CULTURE EVENTS THAT LIVE ON THE TEENTIX BLOG. IN 2015, WE PUT THE PRESS CORPS ON HIATUS AND WORKED WITH TASK FORCE OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE PROGRAM'S ONGOING CHALLENGES, INCLUDING LACK OF SIGNIFICANT RACIAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC DIVERSITY AMONGST PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS AND STAFFING CHALLENGES. THE PRESS CORPS RELAUNCHED IN SPRING OF 2018. OUR UPDATED PRESS CORPS IS DESIGNED TO INCLUDE RACIAL EQUITY AND SOCIAL JUSTICE PRIORITIES AND HAS AN EXPLICIT GOAL OF DISRUPTING SYSTEMS OF OPPRESSION WITHIN ARTS MEDIA THAT HAVE KEPT MARGINALIZED VOICES OUT OF ARTS JOURNALISM.
