Event Details
Music has long been one of the most powerful platforms for social justice movements to spread their message. Passionate musicians use their voices and words to inspire, motivate, and bring attention to issues that otherwise get ignored. We're fortunate enough to be able to bring attention to 3 major movements in Indianapolis: Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+, and women's rights.
