The Black Eyed Peas are opening a school where New York City teens will be able to learn video and music production using professional-quality equipment.
The six-time Grammy Award winners announced on Tuesday their Peapod Foundation together with the Adobe Foundation will open a new Peapod Adobe Youth Voices music and multimedia academy in lower Manhattan.
The two foundations already run three Youth Voices academies in California — in Los Angeles, Oakland and Redwood City.
The New York academy will offer classes to students ages 13 to 19 starting this July.
The Peapod Foundation is the hip-hop group's charitable organisation.
