Radio & Recording Arts
THURSDAYS @ RHINO’S, 3-6 PM – MEETING @ 4 PM
PROGRAM DIRECTOR: Eric Ayotte
The Rhino’s youth radio group plans and produces a weekly 4-hour block of live radio that is broadcast regionally Saturday evenings on WFHB (91.3/98.1 FM). Participants train on professional digital and analog editing and broadcast equipment, ultimately learning to DJ their own monthly hour-long set of their favorite music.
Radio participants also produce a themed monthly podcast that is available internationally for free download on iTunes. Youth record and edit interviews and segments, and are also challenged to think critically and contribute to group discussions about topics relevant and interesting to teenagers.
Rhino’s also has a full-service digital recording studio that is available for use to produce musical projects, with help from trained staff. Come make beats and samples, rhyme, sing or record your band.
New radio participants should plan to attend one of our weekly meetings at 4 PM on Thursday for orientation.
