HEAR US 2024 Information Sessions

HEAR US (Honoring, Elevating, and Recapitalizing Underrepresented Stories) is a mentorship program celebrating and advancing student projects that center marginalized voices and stories. In academic year 2023-24, HEAR US continues to embody Tisch’s IDBEA values by mentoring and funding students who are dedicated to combating systematic marginalization in the creation and leadership of artistic and scholarly works.

During these interactive information sessions you’ll learn more about the HEAR US program including its unique multi-step application process, mentorship, funding, and cohort structure. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and refine your ideas before you begin your application.
