Emoti-Con 2023 Virtual Project Fair is Now Open!

The 15th annual Emoti-Con NYC Youth Digital Media and Tech Project Fair is here with 100+ project presentations from over 500 middle and high school designers, developers, and media-makers!

All community members are encouraged to participate in the virtual project fair! (Read below to see ways you can interact with the virtual project fair).

From Monday, May 22 - Friday, June 2, we invite you to join the Emoti-Con community and help us celebrate the hard work and creativity of NYC youth.

👏 5/22 - 6/2: Explore the Fair, Give Feedback & Support

Great innovation requires collaboration, reflection and a community of peers and mentors who give lots of support.

50+ volunteer judges with careers in applied media and technology from organizations including AWS, Dell Technologies, Google, IBM, Microsoft, and Verizon will review projects and provide mentorship to student teams.

At the bottom of each student project page is a feedback form where anyone (not just official judges) can share encouraging emojis, comments, ideas and questions.

More About Emoti-Con

Emoti-Con is NYC's 15th Annual Youth Digital Media & Technology Challenge- a project fair for students across NYC who believe in digital innovation as a tool for positive change in the world around them. Since 2009, more than 3000 teens (87% BIPOC and/or Latin/x) have participated!

Emoti-Con is a culminating celebration of the creative work produced all year after school programs from organizations within the Hive NYC Learning network (like Global Kids, New-York Historical Society, Educational Video Center- and more) and in classrooms within public schools through CS4ALL NYC, Mouse Design League and many other DOE programs.

Emoti-Con is designed, planned and run by young innovators. The event has been developed through a unique collaboration between youth designers, an alumni committee and NYC youth-serving organizations from the Hive NYC Learning Network who form the Emoti-Con Steering Committee: Code Nation, DreamYard, Global Kids, and Mouse.
