LEVITT VIRTUAL FREE SONGWRITING FALL PROGRAM
About the Fall Program
Recommended for ages 10-17
Five inspiring and interactive workshops that get the next generation of songwriters creating original works, collaborating on their ideas, making music videos, and experiencing what it takes to be an artist in the real world.
Using Zoom, Art As Mentorship and Making Movies work with Levitt Dayton to produce five workshop sessions over the fall semester that get students creating their own music and learning the real-world skills it takes to have a career in music, or a career in any field. Students become part of the Levitt Virtual Songwriter community on Discord, where they stay in contact with teachers, receive weekly writing prompts, share their creations, and can receive 24/7 support during the program.
