TRC Academy Open Enrollment launches August 24th!
For fifteen years we've built the pathway that proves every person is an artist. Now we're making it permanent.
Professional studios at $10 to $40 an hour. A free Academy in the business of creative work. One of Boston's largest communities of creative businesses. Fifteen years, and the doors have never closed.
Amplify Boston '26 was the first chapter. Our community met that goal, and it proved the model works. Built to Amplify is what comes next: turning what's proven into something permanent.
Hold professional studios at 960 Mass Ave at $10 to $40 an hour, so cost never decides who gets to try.
Fund the next cohorts of TRC Academy, free training in the business of a creative career that leads straight to work.
Secure a lasting home for the 400+ creative businesses at 55 Morrissey, and a foundation that outlasts any single campaign.
Anupe came through TRC Academy, put the business side to work in our studios, and today he runs his own business out of our facilities. This fall he came back to share his story with the newest cohort. That's the pathway your gift keeps open.
Every gift goes to keeping space affordable, the Academy free, and the model permanent.
A steady monthly gift is the most reliable support a community space can have.
Companies and organizations can partner through the Academy, events at 55, and multi-year commitments.
A planned gift helps keep this infrastructure open and affordable for the next generation of creators.
It's The Record Co.'s campaign to make its model permanent: affordable professional space, free workforce training, and a home for Boston's creative businesses. It builds on Amplify Boston '26, which our community carried to its goal.
Four hundred businesses have proven what that building is, and we're working to make it permanent. When there's news, our community hears it first.
We built the model around access from day one. People pay to use the studios and businesses pay rent at 55, and that goes back into keeping everything affordable. Philanthropy helps it grow and last.
