FRSHWV Teen Tech + Music Festival

May 5 @ 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm

|Recurring Event (See all)
There will be a two day even geared towards youth with school sponsorship from 12p - 4p ET on May 4th and 5th at The University Science Center. There will be an educators and parent meetup event on the first night from 6p - 8p at Venture Cafe.

FRSHWV’s audience is middle school through high school aged youth (and their parents & teachers) who display interest and talent in tech, gaming, and creative arts. We are partnering with several schools to bring student groups to the live event, we will have a METAVERSE space active also (AI component), and will follow up with monthly workshop style events + a podcast throughout the year. Our theme this year is “Exposure. Access. Community.” Our goal with this event is to shift the narrative in Philly (to start) for teens. In the long game, when you turn on the news you will see teens connected to stories of innovation, hope, and excellence. Culture of collaboration. Music is the connective tissue; Technology is the driving force.

INTERACT w/ emerging technologies
CONNECT with industry experts & mentors
SHOWCASE skills, talent, and projects

The FRSHWV FEST will bring young
creators, engineers, artists, and thinkers
into the same room with thought leaders.
FRSHWV will also make space for those
excelling with emerging technologies,
business savvy, and hard work to create
opportunities for themselves and their
communities.
