Welcome!

This website is a partnership with a print magazine that celebrates the decision of a special group of teenagers who aren't concerned with concept of should, they are just doing! As a society we generally view young people as vessels of endless opportunity. Something to guide and cultivate into happy and productive adults. 

These kids however, have a drive that only comes from within. They aren't waiting to be guided or cultivated. Their drive pushes them though hours of rehearsals and research. It pushes them to find courage, to take risks and it pushes them to set improbable goals.

This website allows you to explore their work, including music sound clips, performance videos, writing blogs and digital galleries.

Hopefully you will find inspiration in their stories and perhaps a little ambition to revisit some of your dreams. 

As always, there are countless kind and creative people who help projects like these along the way.  Many many thanks go out to Ron Gompertz of Wild Joe's, Tami O'Neil and Cale VanVelkinburgh of the Bozeman Alternative School, Mr Jacoby at SAC, Leyla Kirschner, Brain Thabault, Christine Rogel & Seabring, Geoff, Karen, Dom and the crew at Big Sky Journal, Rob Holden and Dan Himswworth, The Dance Center family, Meta Newhouse, Jeff Conger,  Stephanie Newman, Patrick Luther, my family, and most importantly to the young, motivated and accomplished community of Bozeman.
