CONNECTING

A goal of the Lawrence Music Alliance is to better connect our music community with each other, with opportunities and with knowledge to improve creative practices. Ideas and opportunities move quickly among well-connected networks, and we support this with networking meetups, partner programs, convenings, discussions, and artist talks.

64% of the Lawrence music community do not hold memberships with any professional organization.
​
57% desire a place to connect with music industry services.
