Education
By donating, you assist in creating artist residencies in schools and community centers to incorporate Hip-Hop in education, as well as promoting professional growth through free or low-cost workshops and panel discussions featuring music industry professions.
Research & Advocacy
Through initiatives like The Voices of Madison Hip-Hop—a 2019 report compiling insights from conversations with members of the local Hip-Hop community—and the Greater Madison Music City Music Recovery Framework, an in-depth exploration of Madison’s music ecosystem, UCAN has consistently worked to empower and uplift Madison’s music community.
Created to continue the work of the Task Force on Equity in Music and Entertainment (TFEME), Greater Madison Music City (GMMC) aims to align artists, promoters, venues, educators, music production companies, and audiences, in order to strategize for equity among all members of our music ecosystem in the Greater Madison Area.
Donate today to help shape Madison’s future as an equitable and robust music city.
