20. 3 O'Clock Rock: The Most Amazing After-School Music Program!
Did you know that there’s a place where kids go after school, learn how to play rockin’ instruments, start bands with other kids, write and record original music, and then tour?!
Thanks to Billy Ribak, program director at 3 O’Clock Rock After School Music Program in Oakland, CA for giving kids a creative outlet in California and beyond!
In this episode, Billy talks about his unique program, how it got started, what it means to kids across the world, and how you can get involved.
My hope is that this talk is a springboard for some of my listeners, as they look for creative ways to get students…perhaps adults, making more cool stuff!
