Thank you for participating in the public voting process to choose the finalists for Levitt Music Series Grants, an exciting, multi-year matching grant program bringing the joy of free, live music to towns and cities across the country. Selected U.S.-based nonprofits will receive up to $40K per year (up to $120K total) to present free outdoor concerts annually in 2026, 2027, and 2028—sparking new life into underused public spaces and creating joyous, inclusive community destinations.
