GRAMMY MUSEUM LAUNCHES EDUCATION CAMPAIGN

The Grammy Museum has launched its Campaign For Music Education to raise money for its educational endowment and programs. The funds raised will provide free admission for all students as well as expanded access to its music education programs across the U.S. Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, Bruno Mars, Shawn Mendes and Rosalía are among the co-chairs of the campaign.

"Our goal with this campaign is very simple: to do our best to democratize music education by expanding our reach into under-served communities where access to our museum and educational programs could make a huge impact and ultimately foster the next generation of music's creators and leaders," Grammy Museum President and CEO Michael Sticka said.

"Many in the music industry have come together to help us achieve our goal of making music education a vital part of kids' lives, and we couldn't be more thankful for their support."

Eilish added: "I was able to visit the Grammy Museum a lot when I was growing up. We saw so many amazing artists perform that I never would've been able to see otherwise. I love the exhibits and the whole experience. I am excited to help kids who are the same age as I was to have free access to this magical place and all that it has to offer in music education and experience."

The Museum hopes by providing free music education programs, it will be able to foster the next generation of music's creators and leaders. The Campaign For Music Education funds would more than double the number of students who have access to the Grammy Museums' galleries each year. It would also expand its education and community programs, which have served more than 435,000 students through programs such as Grammy Camp, Grammy In The Schools and the Quinn Coleman Scholarship Fund.
