Street College: Studio Saturdays is a free youth program for students in grades 5-12. The program is presented in partnership by the nonprofit organization, STEAM Genius and the Hip Hop Innovation Center at the University of Illinois.
Meetings are from 9am-12pm in Room 0324 in the basement of the Music Building (1114 W. Nevada St. in Urbana, IL). Instructors will be present to guide musicians through activities related to creating original music, beatmaking, coding, DJing, electronics, engineering, recording, songwriting, and other expressive and collaborative activities.
