PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Teens 12 to 18 years old can learn about electronic music, beat making, and music production at the library for free.

 

The Berkshire Athenaeum are partnering with Geoffrey Carter of BeatNest who will guide youth in creating original music while growing their skills as creative individuals. 

 

The workshop series will occur for four Wednesdays, October 2, 9, 16, and 23, 2024 from 3 – 4:30 pm. Registration is required and

we request that participants be able to make all four sessions as the knowledge learned will build upon each meeting.

 

According to Geoffrey Carter: "BeatNest classes offer a way to learn music in a unique way. During these sessions, we'll cover a large range of topics from beat making to sound design, that will lead to participants creating their own individual piece of work."

 

Visit the Young Adult or Children's Departments to sign up or call (413) 499-9480 ext. 5. Space is limited. Meets in the Athenaeum Room on the balcony level.

 

Sponsored by the Friends of the Berkshire Athenaeum.
