Mission Statement

The New York Chapter of The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NY NATAS) conducts activities that cultivate, promote and encourage understanding of, appreciation for, and public interest in the arts, crafts and sciences of television.

As a professional organization serving the New York area we endeavor to educate and act as a resource to our members and the industry. We award the Emmy® for talent and ability in composition, creation, and performance of works which strive to improve the quality of television.

We recognize outstanding achievement, we encourage the pursuit of excellence and promote the highest standards of quality in professional, technical and personal achievement in the arts and sciences of television by conferring the industry’s classic, and most coveted peer recognition symbol of distinction, the Emmy.
