BAYCAT is an innovative social enterprise that educates, empowers and employs low income youth, young people of color, and young women in the Bay Area who lack access to opportunities to study and create digital media art. BAYCAT is reinvesting in historically oppressed communities by providing a platform for youth to become authentic storytellers and innovative leaders, armed with the skills, hands-on training, and professional experience needed to compete for jobs and build equity in our communities. By combining media arts with innovative technology, we are changing not only the stories that get told but the storytellers who get to tell them.
