Now you know where to call: Dallas has its own music office.
Sarah Johnson, who organizes the yearly showcase Girls of DFW, says North Texas needs organizations such as the Dallas Music Office.We're in the midst of our spring campaign, and we have until June 7 to raise $4,000. This money directly supports the journalismproduces and helps keep our work freely accessible for all, because not everyone can afford to pay for news. If you value our work, please make a contribution today to help us reach our goal.
“One of the biggest things I was hearing was all the initiatives exist but they’re super siloed,” says Kirkenaer-Hart. “There’s no cohesiveness where there’s a one-stop shop for all these things” “Options for health insurance,” Robinson says of the ways the office could help working musicians thrive. “Or options for maybe, like, parking permits, for musicians that play in neighborhoods like Deep Ellum or neighborhoods where parking is limited.”“What I would like to see a centralized hub of information of grant opportunities or access to funds for artists,” O’aiza says.
The idea for Dallas is similar, with performances around the city meant to engage residents and visitors. Some Dallas musicians who are excited for the new initiative say they recognize the need for more resources to make Dallas a successful music city or, rather, for the existing resources to become centralized and more accessible.. “I’ve been familiar with and recognized by the Texas Music Office in general, so for that to be expanded to the city of Dallas is a great thing for our musicians here in the city.”is excited as well.
