Empower student voices; Equip youth artists
#HUSHpodcast and its spinoffs, HUSH Jr and Shush!, are part of an original sci-fi podcast series written, composed and performed by secondary students in the St. Croix River Valley through a youth storytelling center called StoryArk. StoryArk's audio drama teams write the scripts, compose and play the music, create the sound effects and perform the roles. Each episode is aired as a radio play on Voices in the Valley (10 AM Saturday mornings on KLBB 1220) before being uploaded onto the podcast directories.
