Are you young, do you live in Vienna and want to do something with media in your free time? wienXtra’s media centre is THE place to go for experimenting and exploring!

You have the idea, and we provide the support you need: advice, equipment rental, editing suites, workshops and information events – most of our services are free for young people under the age of 22.

Media education in theory and practice

Educators who want to use media in their work will find a large variety of services and activities at our media centre: seminars, information events and a training course in media education provide valuable ideas for your own work. mz staff provide advice on your specific project plans and also assist you with your project, if required. 

The educational objective of acquiring media skills has become more important than ever. Today’s media worlds are waiting to be discovered and developed by you – so don’t miss out! If you know how to express yourself in the different languages of the media, you’ve got media cracked.
