Getchy.com is a product of Children's Discovery Museum 's CD Media Studio. It is a creative forum for youth 11-15 to learn the basics of digital, video, and web media. Getchy.com is written by teens for teens, and some content may be inappropriate for younger audiences.

Kids from all over Silicon Valley bring their various backgrounds, creative abilities, ideas, skills and enthusiasm together to produce everything seen on Getchy. In order to create what is seen on Getchy, kids have mastered and helped each other learn Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Apple IMovie, and Adobe GoLive. Everything seen on Getchy.com is created by teens for teens, and some content may be inappropriate for younger audiences.

The purpose of the site is to offer a venue for youth to publish their creative efforts and to offer the tools and the knowledge to do that on their own. In addition we encourage participation from visitors to the site in the way of submissions of artwork, stories, digital media, comments and questions. Please see our privacy statement for more information.

If you know any youth who are interested in participating in the production of Getchy.com, please contact:
