Songwriting Network 2025

Last year we did a soft launch of “The Songwriting Network” and hosted several all-day songwriting events for local talented musicians and songwriters. These were ran in small sessions as “invite only” as we did beta testing for how we wanted to roll out this fun new lab. 

This year we are opening The Songwriting Network to teens and adults in the Village Creative Community and beyond, who either currently write songs on their own, or have an interest in starting their songwriting journey.
