We want to hire you for our education program!

3rd Ward is looking for experienced educators in the following areas:

        1. Professional development for artists and creative freelancers. Courses include grant research and writing, business planning, self-promotion, marketing and networking.
        2. Lecturers for topics in graphic design, interior design, photography and the arts.

3rd Ward is a center for artists, designers, photographers, and creative entrepreneurs. Our education program strives to serve both our core constituents and the general public interest in these areas, thereby bringing both together, and broadening the greater knowledge. We have two locations in Brooklyn, both conveniently located near L train stations.

We pay our teachers a competitive hourly rate along with generous access to our facilities. We put a lot of control of the syllabus and course structure in the hands of our instructors. We love new ideas and fresh approaches to education. If you have an idea for a subject that you'd like to teach that seems to fall outside the realm of our offerings, please send us a proposal!

Moviehouse hits the handball courts at Sternberg Park in Brooklyn

This summer Moviehouse and the Open Space Alliance present CinemaParque, a series of six screenings projected on the handball courts of Sternberg Park in Brooklyn. Every other Wednesday, starting July 1, both sides of the handball wall feature remarkable Spanish-language shorts, videos and documentaries (complete with sub-titles.)

This Wednesday six massively talented filmmakers aged 14-21 present honest films on their experiences with immigration, sexual identity and unfair labor practices in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn.

Filmmakers Desiree Camacho, Michael Vasquez, Jeremy Lopez, Joshua Carrero, Bryan Lopez, Patricia Torres are part of New Children/ New York, a program that uses filmmaking to tell the stories of young NYC Latino/as from their unique points of view.

For the past 3 years, the project has been training young people in Bushwick, Brooklyn to make films about their striking lives. They have made nearly 30 videos about their personal concerns, which have shown on television, the web, in many public screenings and at youth and major film festivals.

Sternberg Park is located at Lorimer Street and Boerum Street in East Williamsburg http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Lorimer+Street+and+Boerum+Street,+Brooklyn,+NY&ie=UTF8&split=0&gl=us&ei=CSRKSu3UJJO2NovVhJcB&z=16&iwloc=A
