The Summer Institute for Teens is a week-long program that exposes students to many aspects of museums and the art world. This is a workshop focused on connecting with peers and exploring new ideas rather than a technical or portfolio-based program.

- Exchange ideas with peers interested in the arts
An ideal candidate:
- Shows strong interest in pursuing a college degree or career in art history, studio art, or art education

- Maintains a positive attitude and works well with others
This program will meet at Nasher Sculpture Center June 9 - 11 and at The Warehouse Dallas June 12 - 13.
