PARTNERS
America’s Music was a collaborative public program presenting the
history of American popular music through a series of documentary
film screenings, scholar-led discussions, musical performances,
exhibits, and workshops. The series explored blues and gospel, Tin
Pan Alley, jazz, bluegrass, rock ’n’ roll, and Latin music. Illinois
State University’s library worked with many stakeholders to
produce the series, which was well-received by the community.
