Education
Since opening our doors in 2001, the Jacob Burns Film Center (JBFC) has been committed to education programs in 21st century literacy and to innovative film programming. The Media Arts Lab, our state-of-the art facility located down the street from the JBFC Theater in Pleasantville, NY, is the hub of our education programs. Our international faculty presents dozens of courses in multimedia storytelling for children, teens, and adults at the Lab. In addition, we create and teach innovative programs for schools and organizations. By integrating visual communication into the pre-K through grade 12 curriculum, we are working to transform education nationally and internationally.
