Our summer schedule looks a little different!

We're excited to welcome students to a a digital animation camp, middle school summer camp, and high school podcast camp in our studio throughout June and July - and it means our usual programs are adjusting.

Here are some changes you need to know:
✅ Enrichment classes are paused and will return in the fall!
✅ Young Creatives Campus is paused and will return THURSDAY June 18th! It will be held two Thursdays a month moving forward.
✅ We will still offer studio booking during the summer, but availability of days and times will vary. The typical schedule will return in the fall.

Any questions? You can always DM us or email [email protected] for more info!

Some special guests dropped by the studio recently 👀❤️💛💚

We’re stoked to release RDGLDGRN’s Y.O.R. Session next week - an exclusive performance from the Virginia-based band taking place in the Youth on Record studio.

Throughout June, we’ll release 3 full song performances featuring RDGLDGRN’s distinct blend of hip hop, punk, and indie rock.

The videos (which you can catch on our YouTube!) were filmed, edited, mixed, mastered, and produced by the young creatives (ages 18-24) on the YOR Youth Media Team. These young creatives are current or former YOR Fellows and Podcast Production Interns, all of whom are paid for their Y.O.R. Session work.

And we’ll have a *bonus* surprise for RDGLDGRN fans leading up to their June shows at Red Rocks and Dillon. More info to come!

This Y.O.R. Session was powered by Victrola 🤘

HUGE KUDOS to the 8th cohort of YOR Podcast Production Interns! 🎉🎙

They officially wrapped their internship last week, presenting their original audio pieces to a room full of family, friends, media professionals, and supporters.

The interns (young creatives ages 18-24) spent months learning the ins and outs of audio production. They met with professionals in the field, recorded PSAs, honed their writing script writing and hosting skills, mixed and mastered audio, and developed their unique voices.

Now, they're leaving with portfolios full of original work.

Tune in to upcoming episodes of Youth on Rewind and current episodes of Get Loud Radio Lounge to hear their incredible feature interviews, personal narratives, roundtable discussions, and vox pops.

Congrats to Audrey, TaTiana, Peter, Pilar, and Leo 👏👏👏👏👏

Shout out to David Ladon, Ryan Conarro, and Lucy Richardson for leading this impactful program, Chris Fazzari for snapping photos, and Tongjai Lee for mixing and mastering a vox pop *in real time* at the event.
