America's Music Crossroads Center

The vision of the Center is to support and assist the future of American Music and its musicians –- both “living legends” and emerging artists –- through various innovative initiatives.

 

  • DreamMakers Professional Artists Mentoring Series

A program to help children define and express their personal dreams as well as to accelerate the impact on their communities through school-based programs in which professional artists and musicians educate and mentor the children.

 

  • Development of Live Performance Venues

Original productions for charitable, political and festival events including the popular "Entrepreneurial Thursdays" series, the "Soul of the City" shows, the "Steel Songbird" festival, and the "Art & Soul" series.

 

  • StreetSmarts Academy Program

Original programming to pass the American Music art form on to the next generation through school and community-based initiatives.

 

  • Entertainment Business Acceleration

Programs to help professional musicians develop expanded career opportunities through live performance as well as the commercialization of related music products and services, including access to an entertainment technology incubator/accelerator.

 

  • Saving the Crawford Grill

We have recruited a group of local investors who have purchased this historic venue, and are currently raising funds to rennovate it into a music-based education and performance center.
