ActiveMusic

ActiveMusic

"In 1996, a small group of dedicated activists with ties to the music community saw music as a means to draw people to the causes they were working with. Believing that through the experience of live music hearts can be touched and inspire individuals to take personal responsibility and positive action on issues that impact their lives, founder Susann McMahon and co-founder Richard Wegman united this group under the name of ActiveMusic."
