What Is SoundQuest Station?
A Place to Create, Lead, and Grow
SoundQuest Station is a place where you show up each week, work with the same group, and build cool things together over time. It's not like school — there are no grades, no tests, and no boring lectures. Instead, you get to dive into hands-on creative projects that actually matter.
You'll explore music production, run podcasts, experiment with media and technology, and discover gaming and digital tools. Along the way, you'll learn how to work with others, lead projects, solve problems together, and support your peers. Every session builds on the last, so you see real progress and finish projects you can actually be proud of.
You don't need experience. You don't need to be "good" at anything yet. You just need interest and the willingness to show up, try new things, and work as part of a team. If you're curious and ready to create, you're ready for SoundQuest Station.
PeerCast
You Run the Podcast
At SoundQuest Station, you don't just listen to podcasts — you run PeerCast, a podcast and media channel made by kids, for kids. This is your platform to share stories, ask important questions, and create content that supports and encourages other young people in your community and beyond.
Host Episodes
You ask the questions, guide the conversation, and lead the show from start to finish.
Work as a Team
Collaborate with other kids on every part of the media process — from planning to publishing.
Interview Guests
Bring in interesting people and lead conversations that inspire and inform your audience.
"This is your space to use your voice and help others feel seen and heard."
Running PeerCast means taking responsibility, making creative decisions, and learning what it takes to produce quality content. You'll develop real-world skills in communication, teamwork, and leadership — all while creating something meaningful.
Every session at SoundQuest Station is packed with hands-on activities that let you explore different creative paths. You're not stuck doing one thing — you get to try it all, discover what you love, and build skills that matter both now and in your future.
