Black Music City is currently accepting applications to fund 30 Black artists who want to celebrate Philly Black Music Heritage through a creative project.

A Black music heritage project is one that celebrates and draws inspiration from the rich legacy of Black music in Philadelphia. This can include honoring past or present artists, musical styles, venues, movements, or community traditions that have shaped Philly’s music scene. Ultimately, a qualifying project should connect creatively to Philly’s Black music history and uplift its impact in an authentic and meaningful way.
