City Hall Introduces New Initiatives For Toronto Artists
July 10th, 2015
The City of Toronto and Music Sector Development Office Make Tanner have announced the launch of two new and exciting initiatives highlighting the talents of local musicians that will feature live and recorded music.
Music 311 is a new initiative that brings the music of Toronto artists to the 311 phone system, a service residents, visitors and businesses can use to get information about City of Toronto services or programs, or make a request for service. As part of the Music 311 program, recorded music from Toronto artists will play while callers are placed on hold to speak with a customer service operator.
Live From City Hall will be a free music showcase that will provide local artists with the opportunity to place on the first floor rotunda at one of Toronto’s most unique architectural attractions.
With the launch of Music 311 and Live From City Hall, the City Of Toronto is further establishing it’s commitment to provide more live music opportunities for local artists and guide the city’s music sector through the development of the Toronto Music Advisory Council.
An online application for artists is now available for artists who wish to take part in the program.
The full details can be viewed at the City Of Toronto website.
