A free six-day digital camp for women and nonbinary music producers of color from all levels and backgrounds, In Session offers a space to explore production techniques, music history, industry education, and to foster a supportive community.

Organized by Van Newman (Fiveboi), Sam Law, Jada Lorraine, Ariana Garland, Bailey Lawson, and Muñeca Diaz, In Session is offered to women and nonbinary music producers, and their mission states, “We don’t believe the problem is how to teach women and nonbinary people how to become producers. We are producers. We are already here. Our mission is to create powerful communities of women and nonbinary music producers, on a local and  global scale.”

So if you’ve been looking for a group of other BIPOC producers to connect with, we highly suggest checking out In Session and getting the last licks of summer in through a fun, supportive, and enriching environment!
