Get hands-on experience mixing your own music and creating original videos. Work with Franklin Library’s Teen Tech Squad to express yourself using the latest technology in music and video production.
Made possible by the Friends of the Hennepin County Library through a grant from The McKnight Foundation.

Teens can meet nationally-recognized hip hop artists such as Brother Ali at an “MVStudio” kickoff event and get hands-on experience using the latest technology in music and multimedia production at free programs presented mid-March through mid-May at six Hennepin County libraries.

The programs are presented in partnership with the Institute of Production and Recording (IPR) and are funded with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund, with additional funding from Best Buy’s Children’s Foundation.

“’MVStudio’ programs offer teens an opportunity to use and further develop their creative skills as they learn about music and multimedia production,” said Hennepin County Library Director Lois Langer Thompson. “This program experience offers a way to capture their stories, poems, and ‘voices’ as they collaborate with others and connect with their community.”
