NWAMC was founded by musicians for musicians in June 2011 and is a thriving community of musicians, performers, entertainers, talent buyers, venue owners, photographers, industry professionals, and enthusiasts in and around Northwest Arkansas. We are 100% volunteer supported.
Our mission is to support NORTHWEST ARKANSAS MUSICIANS & MUSIC INDUSTRY WORKERS:
Connecting local, regional, and national artists and the venues that showcase their talent across entertainment districts in Fayetteville, Springdale, Lowell, Johnson, Rogers, Bentonville, Siloam Springs, Eureka Springs, Bella Vista, and other surrounding areas. We believe in supporting the rich and diverse music scene that has been carefully curated in NWArkansas. By preserving, promoting and enriching resources geared towards the self-employed musician, we aim to eradicate the term "starving artists."
