“One important thing to understand about the work that we do is we work with some of the hardest to reach young people in the U.S.,” says Michael Lipset, co-director and co-founder of 4 Learning - the sister organization to the High School for Recording Arts (HSRA).
He continues, “We view them as some of the most talented, some of the hardest working, some of the most creative, as well.”
WorkingNation sat down with Lipset at SXSW EDU 2024 in Austin.
4 Learning is the expansion of the HRSA model - to other schools around the country. Lipset notes, “What we're seeing is that young people really flock to the studio as a space where they can develop all the skills necessary for 21st century success.”
