Applications go live on Feb. 1 for New York University’s Hyperlocal Summer Academy in New York City’s East Village. Although the application process has not gone live yet, we wanted to take a second to give you a glimpse into what summer in the East Village is like for an Academy student.
A good place to start is The Village Beat, which is the site created specifically for Hyperlocal students. One student last summer found herself scouring the East Village for vegan desserts to write about for a story. Check out Olivia’s work.
We aim to acquaint students with the East Village as much as possible during their time here at NYU. To do that, Academy participants will see, as they did last summer, such shows as Stomp, Blue Man Group, and Monday Night Magic – one of NYC’s longest-running magic shows. One student, Emily, captured the wonderful experience.
Read more about summer experiences with the Academy on the Village Beat.
The application goes live on Feb. 1.
