Sound Wave: Retreat

Jump Studios Stories: Jack Louis Cooper

June 3, 2021 by Scott Piggott

We sat down and spoke with musician Jack Louis Cooper about his experiences with Jump Studios and how they have impacted his life.

We first met Jack during The Male Room programme in 2018. This was a programme we ran to support young men in exploring their own masculine identity whilst simultaneously developing their skills as creative professionals.

Jack met multiple future collaborators and friends on the programme, whom he still works with to this day.

Soon after ‘The Male Room’, Jack was heavily involved in our Sound Wave: Retreat which led him to becoming one of our volunteer Youth Facilitators in our after-school sessions.

In the interview we recorded with Jack, he talks about his own experiences in education and how important he finds after-school sessions in a young persons personal development.

Jack has been working with us for multiple years now and we can’t wait to see how he progresses both professionally and creatively.

If you want to follow Jack’s music, then you can do so at his Instagram found here.

Jump Studios Stories: Millicent Grant

April 29, 2021 by Scott Piggott

We sat down and spoke with musician Millicent Grant about her experiences with Jump Studios and how they have impacted her life.

We first met Millie when she joined our Change Creators programme and formed the social action group Hack a Heckle.

In this group, she went on the streets of Barcelona to perform and challenge street harassment.
