AMC is looking for community partners and research partners who want to support a regional music economy, and for anyone who just wants to learn more about the work. Here's how to start a conversation.

01 / Ways to partner

Two kinds of partners, and always room to just learn more.

Whether you're already doing the work on the ground or you want to help study it, there's a place to connect.

Community partners

Venues, artists, educators & supporters

Anyone already doing the work on the ground, from venues and presenters to educators and creatives, who wants to connect their work to AMC's regional efforts.

Research partners

Colleges, institutions & data partners

Colleges, universities, and organizations who want to help study the region's music economy and turn what we learn into something useful.

02 / You'd be in good company

Partners already at the table.

These are some of the venues, festivals, and organizations already connected to AMC across the region. Yours could be next.
