The Jonathan Logan Family Foundation Media Center is part of the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts at the University of Chicago. The Logan Media Center facilitates filmmaking, podcasting and other forms of art and digital storytelling that engage diverse audiences. Support from the Jonathan Logan Family Foundation enables the Logan Media Center to serve as a sponsor of media arts training, a presenter of new artistic work and a creative hub for the University and the community. Making the art of storytelling accessible to the community is at the core of what is important to the Jonathan Logan Family Foundation.
The Logan Media Center provides AV equipment, production space, software and technical training. Participants engage in production across a range of arts disciplines in pursuit of coursework, individual projects, youth media education, community-based digital storytelling, faculty research and organized student activities.
