Level Up Studios is a creative arts studio in Pittsburgh that focuses on enriching the educational and artistic experiences of African American youths here in the city. Level Up Studios uses a range of creative disciplines, including Hip Hop Dance & Martial Arts, Creative Writing, Studio Production, and Visual Arts, to bring another dimension to learning for children and teens growing up in disadvantaged circumstances and difficult environments. Inspired by hip hop culture, Level Up celebrates its positive roots and serves as a creative playground for underserved youth, local artists/ musicians and cultural enthusiasts. Created out of a passion for community reinvestment, we aim to make art, music and movement accessible in life, not just the classroom. Here we encourage students to explore their ideas through experimentation in the arts while building the skills to develop career related interests, self confidence, and cultural awareness.

“I can see that nothing that we make exists in a vacuum - lots of artists deal with their culture, their surroundings, and the times they live in. That’s integral to the content and part of how we perceive it, and in some ways it’s a part of their biographical story.” - David Byrne
This Must Be the Place explores cultures, places, and people relevant to artists working at VaultArt Studio. Tune in to vaultartstudio.org/theplace at Noon on June 5 to hear how artists adapt to the new normal. VaultArt Studio is a project of Achieva, which advocates for, empowers, and supports people with disabilities and their families throughout their lives.
