The Crissy Field Center is the multimedia hub for the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Participants of all ages and park staff interact with urban ecology in new ways and express what the environment means to them through digital photography, video production, and GIS technology. View samples of youth produced projects, video clips, and animations below. You'll also find games for kids to play!

WATCH: For Some, For None

With footage from a 7-day road trip from San Francisco to Yosemite and Grand Canyon National Parks, Inspiring Young Emerging Leaders (I-YEL) interns from the Crissy Field Center created a 19-minute film exploring visitation of national parks by minority groups, especially urban youth of color.  From their investigation and reflection, high school interns grew to understand that in order for people to care about national parks, they must also care about their own communities and that national parks are only relevant if they connect to everyday issues.  In this powerful video, you will see how these interns are turning the environmental stereotype on its head and redefining who is an environmental leader
