Bands will meet once a week for 6 weeks (1.5 hrs for each rehearsal; 9 hours of instructional time total) to learn songs, have fun with their friends, and then perform live what they've learned! We group bands together based on age, experience, instruments, and if they have friends in the program they'd like to play with. For more info, please email
info@popshopwv.com We have safety protocols in place which means we retrieve students outside the building at start time and we require masks at all times.

Sketch & Release Class - Schedule TBA but we'd be looking at weekends in April and May, 5 classes that are 2 hours long each.
PopShop’s Sketch & Release Class will now be available through the Fall and Spring Sessions! The class teaches students how to create their own music and comedy TV show. Your child, with their peers, will spend a week writing skits and songs, producing their own hit TV show. Imagine “Saturday Night Live” meets “The Monkees”, with your child as the star of the show.
Students, age 10-18, will meet at the PopShop studios for two hours a day.
During the class, groups will:
- Create and film a show sponsor
- Brainstorm, storyboard, write, and film scenes with dialogue
- Write and record a commercial
- Write and perform a grand finale song
No previous musical/theater/art experience is required. Students will be immersed in all three by the end of the week.
After filming and editing, a finished show will be sent to each student!
