A new summer program is allowing young adults to get hands-on experience in the arts and entertainment industry in Newark, New Jersey.
"I really want these kids to get things that school can't teach them in music classes," said Cashmere King, Owner of Galaxy Sound Studios. Major motion pictures and TV shows like "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises," "Joker," "The Plot Against America," "The Sopranos," and its prequel, "The Many Saints of Newark," have all been filmed there.
The Summer Youth Employment Program is made possible by a public-private partnership led by the City of Newark and including the New Jersey Department of Labor and 19 corporate and philanthropic partners.
