Your Opportunity
Young Life has given us a grant to sponsor 12 youth for a pilot program: Amplify. The program will consist of multiple instrumental and creative focuses, and will happen in two phases:
-
Phase 1: 6-8 weeks of technical instruction & performance development
-
Phase 2: 12-16 weeks of artist development & recording/production training
Classes will meet Monday evenings throughout both phases, with Saturday workshops sprinkled throughout featuring guest instructors teaching workshops on unique topics,
The program culminates in a field-trip to San Francisco to record a group project in MusicOne's recording studios, Pyramind Institute.
