It may be 48° here with wind whipping through the canyons of steel that some 8 million people call home, but here at Tisch Special Programs we're already busy prepping for summer. What's that, you say? You're thinking about summer in New York City, too? Well, good, because we've got just what you need! Summer in New York is breathtaking views from the Brooklyn Bridge, the smell of hot dogs and fresh cut grass at baseball games, concerts in the park (we've got a couple), and your chance to experience everything Tisch School of the Arts has to offer. Not a college student? We've got you covered with non-credit classes and certificate programs.
