City officials said involvement in AMO builds on existing initiatives such as the Tune-Up Grant Program, the New Orleans Music Census, musician professional development partnerships and the city\u2019s first Nighttime Economy Strategic Plan.\n<\/p>\n<p>Through those efforts, O.N.E. has positioned New Orleans as an active contributor to national conversations about how municipalities can sustain and grow local music economies.\n<\/p>\n<p>Other founding members of AMO include the Texas Music Office, the Tennessee Entertainment Commission, Georgia Music Partners, Music Export Memphis and the Recording Academy. The coalition also includes a mix of music-focused offices, cultural agencies, film and entertainment commissions and nonprofit partners, reflecting a broad range of approaches to supporting local music industries.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs cities continue recognizing the economic and cultural importance of local <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/neworleanscitybusiness.com\/blog\/tag\/music-industry\/\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag \" rel=\"tag\" title=\"Posts tagged with music industry\">music industry<\/a>, collaboration between local offices and organizations has become increasingly important,\u201d said Julia Heath, Policy &amp; Outreach Manager for the Office of Nighttime Economy and Chair of AMO\u2019s Membership Committee. \u201cThis work looks different from city to city. Some communities have standalone music offices, while others support music through cultural agencies, nightlife offices, nonprofits, tourism organizations, or cross-sector partnerships. AMO creates a space for those groups to share ideas, discuss challenges, and learn from one another while supporting the people and places that make local music ecosystems possible.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>AMO plans to roll out programming that includes webinars, expanded membership efforts, resource sharing and ongoing collaboration on music policy and ecosystem development.\n<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/links-2.govdelivery.com\/CL0\/http:%2F%2Fwww.musicoffices.org%2F%3Futm_campaign=City_of_New_Orleans%26utm_content=%26utm_medium=email%26utm_source=govdelivery%26utm_term=\/1\/0101019e224d3f93-a9ac9dd5-2250-438f-b392-51d3ee676070-000000\/CFh4KeqHMJXhzcoaHqaqWKwnF4RaAFiTwVu3Jc1Pd4c=452\">www.musicoffices.org<\/a>\u00a0or contact Julia Heath at\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/neworleanscitybusiness.com\/cdn-cgi\/l\/email-protection#09637c65606827616c687d614967666568276e667f\"><span class=\"__cf_email__\" data-cfemail=\"b8d2cdd4d1d996d0ddd9ccd0f8d6d7d4d996dfd7ce\">[email\u00a0protected]<\/span><\/a>.<br \/>\n<!-- post-single CPT Filter Start --><!-- post-single CPT Filter End    --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source neworleanscitybusiness.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KEY TAKEAWAYS: New Orleans O.N.E. is a founding member of the new Association of Music Offices (AMO).
