The Four26 Share Your Story Program
Four26 Studios is proud to present Share Your Story, a program that offers different groups (veterans, senior citizens, youth groups, prisoners) an opportunity to create while having their story honored through the process of songwriting. No musical or songwriting skills are necessary to participate, just a willingness to talk about their life and, with the help of professional songwriters, craft their own unique song.
Why Songwriting?
Songwriting is a creative activity that helps people express a range of ideas and feelings. Engaging in this process has many benefits:
- Helping process emotions and supporting emotional stability
- Revealing the humanity in yourself and others
- Connecting you to the joy of creating something new
- Easing your pain and the pain of your listeners
- Facilitating personal development
- Providing a vehicle for self-expression, self-discovery, and overcoming challenges
How Does It Work?
Participants sign up for a 3-hour session with Peter & Becki from The Four26 and have the opportunity to talk about life experiences and share insights like: what it meant to you, the hard moments, the proud moments, and how they affected your life. Peter & Becki will guide you in writing your story, in your voice that will result in a song like no other.
In the weeks following the session, an acoustic version of your song will be recorded by Peter & Becki for you to listen and play whenever you want.
