Moving Forward Together

Our annual convenings bring together members and artists from across the United States to collaborate and create solutions.

The Convening promotes cross-sector engagement, with conversations that span the arc of musical development. Through keynote presentations, panel discussions, and break-out groups, we develop concrete steps to build meaningful, lasting equity in the field.

A concurrent Festival provides an intensive musical experience for Fellows to work alongside a professional orchestra. Young artists have opportunities to network with peers, learn from musicians in highly regarded orchestras, perform for faculty from prestigious institutions, and participate in equity-advancing projects.
