The 2025 Urban Journalism Workshop begins today!
Since 1986, UJW teaches local high school students interested in pursuing careers in media, the fundamentals of journalism through interactive lectures, hands-on training and field trips. Professional journalists and educators from The New York Times, The Associated Press, ESPN, SiriusXM, and more lead these students through mentorship during this eight-week program. UJW begins today through late April 2025
The program is free. Applications are closed. We encourage all DMV area-based students to apply by January 2026.
