The Texas Music Office (TMO) and the Bandera County Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) will co-host a Music Friendly Texas Community workshop on Monday, Aug. 12.
“It’s long overdue. We all know music is critical in this town,” CVB Executive Director Patricia Moore said. “This is a step that will certify us as a music friendly community.”
TMO Director Chip Adams and TMO Community Relations and Outreach Specialist Gini Mascorro will join virtually to explain the Music Friendly Texas Community designation and the benefits of becoming certified and answer any questions. Participation in TMO’s Music Friendly Texas program, the first in the nation since introduced by TMO in 2016, provides Texas communities with a network for fostering music industry development and sends a clear message to industry professionals that certified communities are serious about attracting and developing music industry growth.
Once the certification process is completed, Bandera will join 63 other Texas cities that have earned the Music Friendly Texas designation. The event is free, and musicians, venues and the general public are welcome to join in-person or online.
The hybrid workshop will begin at noon, at the Bandera Electric Cooperative, 3172 Hwy 16 N. For more information, contact Moore at [email protected], or 830-796-3045.
