Nonprofit Pandion Music Foundation Announces July Calendar Of Free Music Industry Programs

Pandion Music Foundation (PMF) a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2022 dedicated to fostering growth in the music creator community is kicking off new July programs for artists. All PMF programs are offered weekly and are free. PMF recognizes that many independent and emerging artists do not have the access to the resources or networks that are required to build their careers. PMF was created to provide those tools and nurture the music creator community across all lines of diversity and inclusion. PMF partners include Earthstar Creation Center,2indie.com, and Sweetwater.

PMF founders are artists Rebecca Trujillo Vest (Los Angeles, USA), Jordan Stobbe (Melbourne, AUS), and Carls Woolf (London, UK). They recently commented, “When we launched Pandion two years ago, we wanted to level the playing field to help other creators access the resources they need to strengthen and support thriving careers. Our weekly online programs are focused on current trends in the music industry—and they also offer unlimited replays—so we believe our nonprofit model is a genuine game changer for musicians.”
