Recording Workshops with CJAM

Did you enter a submission for Radio Elsewheres? Have no idea where to start?

Don’t worry, CJAM and AWE are going to deliver a series of workshops to get you started!

We have three upcoming workshops in August:

CJAM is located in the lower level of the CAW Student Centre at the University of Windsor, right next to the Assumption Church parking lot. Free parking is available in that lot. To find us, head downstairs (via stairs or elevator), walk past the pharmacy, and turn right down the hall.
