The Art of Organizing Musicians: From Cause to Collaboration

Allied Media Conference 2011 - Detroit, MI

Saturday 9:00-10:30AM - June 25, 2011 

PRESENTERS: Diana Nucera, Deanne Cuellar, Ernesto Olivo, Erica Monzon, George Garza, Jr.

Music can be a tool for social change and a process of community-building. The work of organizing musicians from different backgrounds and across various genres, to build community and advance social justice, is a work of art! This session will share success stories from a panel of experts in the art of organizing musicians. We will discuss the questions, “How can music-based activism effectively support our visions for social justice at the grassroots? How have musicians organized against injustices historically? What are the challenges of organizing as musicians and how can we address them collectively? Whether you identify as a musician, music-lover, event-planner, or movement-builder, come join this conversation about how to transform the world through music.
