Day in the Life of a PYN "PYNtern"

Summer at PYN is all about exploration, growth, and hands-on experiences - and our students captured it all on camera! This year, we received an incredible array of “Day in the Life” video submissions from participants in our summer programs, showcasing the energy, creativity, and dedication of Philadelphia’s youth.

From behind-the-scenes looks at exciting workplaces to personal stories of learning and growth, these videos give a front-row seat to the summer adventures that make PYN programs so impactful. Here, we’re highlighting the top five submissions that truly stood out for their originality, storytelling, and spirit.
