LUV CITY
We are dedicated to partnering with Chicagoland innovators in digital media production to engage placed-at-risk youth and provide the knowledge, experience, and mentorship necessary for careers on and off the camera, creating content that lifts up the underrepresented and marginalized voices of our communities.
We empower youth to reshape their narratives and become the authors of their future through work-based learning training, internships, and apprenticeships in filmmaking, multimedia production, and the performing arts.
Chicago is famous for being a big city with a small town feel; despite its close to 200 neighborhoods, the residents shape the names and boundaries within our city as much as they do each neighborhood’s unique identity. While Chicago’s South and West sides have been historically disinvested in, and policies from redlining to The War on Drugs have created generational poverty and trauma among our majority Black and Brown community members, our people bring LUV to the streets, creating an ecosystem of support for young artists, entrepreneurs, and dreamers.
