Travelling Workshop Series

Since 2016, Hitmakerz has been delivering workshops in remote communities across Nunavut. See the various projects and their descriptions below.

Arctic Hitmakerz (2016-present)

Formerly known as Nunavut Hitmakerz, Arctic Hitmakerz is a song-writing and music-production tour, travelling to remote communities around northern Canada. To date, the tour has travelled to 13 communities in Nunavut. In each community, the team donates a studio for local artists to use. The tours were developed and created by Nunavut artists Kelly Fraser and Thor Simonsen. To learn more, go to www.facebook.com/arctichitmakerz.
