Music In Place was founded in April, 2020, by a core group of music/video techies, legal, finance, and business professionals—who are also accomplished musicians—to expand public access to the Bay Area musical community during the Covid-19 pandemic. Music In Place nonprofit public benefit corporation with tax exemption from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Our purpose is to create opportunities for musical performances to occur in nontraditional venues and for the public to access such performances, whether ‘in place’ or remotely, thereby educating the public about, and expanding access to, the musical arts.

We aim to:

• Expand public access to musical performance and the musical arts.
• Engage musicians, composers, production professionals, and the community
• Provide training and technical support – how to move from analog to digital performance venues
• Design and produce original music and video works
• Manage digital hosting and distribution on Websites and online platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, Twitter, Instagram
• Create new models for generating financial support

Our hope is that music lovers will visit us on our website, on Facebook and on YouTube to learn about who we are, and what we are doing. We hope that a broad array of audiences will enjoy new music and video works made by these local musicians. We want to ask our community to lend their support to enable Music In Place to build momentum and make a positive impact on as many talented professional performing artists as possible.
