(Marblehead, MA) North Shore Teen Initiative (NSTI), in partnership with the youth programs of Congregation Shirat Hayam (Swampscott), Temple B'nai Abraham (Beverly), Temple Ahavat Achim (Gloucester), Temple Beth Shalom and Temple Ner Tamid (Peabody), Temples Sinai and Temple Emanu-el (Marblehead), is pleased to announce the expansion of the teen music program, Jam Space. Teens are invited to play and share music during these free open jam sessions starting on Sunday, February 13, 7 - 8:30 p.m. and running regularly at the Jewish Community Center of the North Shore (JCCNS) in Marblehead.

Jam Space offers teens a gathering place where they feel comfortable making music and honing their skills together under the supervision of a professional musician. All types of music styles and ways to incorporate any instrument will be explored.  All ability-levels are welcome and will be able to contribute to the session.  There is no pressure to play; teens can join in when and if they feel ready. This session of Jam Space will culminate in a coffeehouse scheduled for April 30, 2011 for all who want to perform in a fun, supportive environment.
