What is Studio 393?
Located on the first floor of Portage Place Shopping Centre by the water fountain, Studio 393 is a free come-as-you-are drop-in studio space for youth aged 12-29. The program curriculum is shaped by participants, focusing primarily on music production and recording, DJing, dance, visual arts, creative writing and podcasting. In addition to a highly qualified staff of practicing artists, Studio 393 also receives local, national and international guests artists and professionals to facilitate workshops and mentor aspiring and emerging young artists. To further support our participants’ artistic pursuits, Studio 393 offers personal and professional development opportunities including mental-health workshops, food security workshops, employment training, resume writing and Job search training, volunteer opportunities and career management workshops. We aim to foster a peer-to-peer community of young people interested in the arts and to build networks between participants and established artists and arts organizations.

Pillars of Hip Hop
After School Leaders Program
Our Pillars of Hip Hop programming, supported by the After School Leaders Program, runs twice a year in both the fall and the spring.
This program hosts FREE workshops for high school students aged 14-21. These workshops focus on the pillars of Hip Hop, while engaging youth in art workshops focusing on the art forms and culture of Hip Hop. Workshops are led by experienced and talented local and travelling guest artists. Following workshops that allow youth to learn and practice new art forms, the youth take control of our Studio 393 Podcast, and get to host an interview with the guest artists, before uploading the video to our media accounts.
Each workshop provides a meal, as well as bus tickets.
Workshops run out of Studio 393 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 4PM-7PM.
