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.
