What:
The Residency, in partnership with ATS South Lake, is offering a quarter-long program (10 weeks) that leads youth through career exploration and offers hands-on opportunities to further explore areas of interest through classes and off-site field trips. The program consists of two parts:
- The Class/course
- Off-Site Learning Experience
The class/course – Instruction and project-based learning course that meets in-person once per week on Wednesdays at ATS. The Residency is leading two of these classes that are each 38 minutes in duration – the same material will be taught at both, but with two different groups of students.
The class will be taught by a Seattle-based instructor who will bring in other teaching artists and guest speakers. The class will cover topics such as Artivisim, Legacy & Culture of Hip-Hop, and Music Business as they relate to hip hop and music-focused career exploration for the students.
Off-site learning experience – In-class instruction will be supplemented with off-site experiences in which students get to visit recording studios and other cultural and music-centered spaces relevant to the course material. Potential off-site learning experiences include:
- The Ruby Room Recording Studio in Georgetown
- MoPop in Seattle Center
