Creating Music in the NRC
Just a short drive out of Downtown Richmond heading toward Eastern Henrico County lies the community of Fulton Hill. Heading down Williamsburg Road, travelers will soon pass the Neighborhood Resource Center. The NRC offers a variety of programs for community members in the Greater Fulton Hill area.
One program is the Young Writer’s Recording Studio. This class meets every Wednesday at 3:30 p.m.
Community children are encouraged to come and write down lyrics, poems and stories. After writing down their creation, program participants may have the chance to record their work in the sound booth. In the past two years, more than 50 participants have laid down tracks in the NRC’s Recording Studio. Last year, several completed songs were chosen to be placed on the NRC’s Studio Sampler CD.
