Projet 4
Projet 4 builds community-rooted pathways back into school through the recording arts. Studio 4 MTL is our flagship program: a studio-centered learning environment where young people earn credit, build skill, and bring their full selves into the room.
A different question for school
What if school served the whole young person?
Recording arts is not a hook. It is the culture-building environment where trust, relevance, identity, academic credit, and creative discipline can live in the same room.
Projet 4 and Studio 4 MTL center the passions and artistic practices too often pushed to the margins by traditional school. In the studio, young people are known, supported, challenged, and taken seriously as artists and learners.
Inside the program
The work is visible because the learning is real.
Young people move between studio practice, cohort support, community care, and public performance. The images are not decoration; they are evidence of the conditions Projet 4 creates.
