Location

YouMedia Chicago's main location is on the ground floor of the Harold Washington Library. We will be opening new YouMedia locations in several branch libraries in coming months as well.

It is accessible from the Brown, Orange, Pink, and Purple train lines' "Library" stops, as well as from the Blue Line's "Dearborn and Jackson" stop and the Red Line's "State and Jackson" stop.

CTA buses also stop on State Street in front of the Library. For additional information, call CTA/RTA at (312) 836-7000. Or visit Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) and Metra.

YOUmedia will be opening in three Chicago Public Library branch locations starting this summer. Offering free programs and activities for youth in grades 6 - 12, YOUmedia is a space where young people can learn digital media skills like graphic design, podcasting, photography and video, work with talented mentors, and develop skills like writing, production, and performance.

YOUmedia programs will be offered at the Lozano branch in Pilsen, the Thurgood Marshall branch in Englewood, and the new Richard M. Daley branch in West Humboldt Park. Programs will run Monday through Thursday in the afternoons and on Saturdays. Check back for updated information on opening dates, workshop schedules, and registration information. We look forward to seeing you!
