Music at the Intersection and Midwest Music Summit events will be postponed until 2021. The health and safety of participating musicians, volunteers and attendees is our top priority, which made the decision to move Music at the Intersection (originally scheduled for September 11-13, 2020) to September 10-12, 2021. The Midwest Music Summit, a music industry centered event designed to provide opportunities for connection and professional development, has also been slated for September 2021.

Many of the touring artists that were booked for this year’s Music at the Intersection event and event sponsors have already committed to the rescheduled festival in 2021. And, importantly, this will position us to give focus where it’s needed most during this time: Exploring options for ways to offer support of the St. Louis region’s music economy in the shorter term.

Thank you for your continued support!

The estimated direct loss of income for this industry to date is $3.6 billion. Americans for the Arts shared with Congress the details of its survey results, along with a series of specific legislative requests to prevent the collapse of the arts and culture industry in America."
