MAPS : Media Arts in the Public Schools

"NATAS are the folks who hand out Emmy awards and they gave our students two awards last year," Rosten said. "They are acknowledging my 25 years as a Hollywood industry professional and contributions to the industry."

…every word sung and every instrument played was done by our MAPSTERS.

Make this a memorable summer

Widely touted, Maps was named one of the top 50 after-school programs in the U.S. by the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities. In 2015 the organization won two awards of excellence from the northwest chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.

We reviewed 301 nominations from 44 states and the District of Columbia, and your program’s selection as one of the 50 Finalists distinguishes it as one of the top arts- and humanities-based programs in the country.

Congratulations to the students of The MAPS Media Institute http://www.mapsmediainstitute.com/ who produced this video for the Ravalli County Council on Aging’s Meals on Wheels program.

The Silver Circle honors media professionals who have solid records of making lasting contributions to the industry and their community for more than 25 years.

Cool stuff to help support and promote MAPS. It’s for the kids!!

This event is free and all Ravalli County high school students are welcome to attend.

"The students made it clear that they did not want academic and abstract training in constructing business plans and such things," said Harff. "They wanted hands-on training. They wanted to actually work on starting a business."
