  • The Community Impact Project Incubator is a vital pillar of CAG’s Citizen Musician Training. Through it, artists explore new ways to create positive community impact beyond the concert stage. In this series of workshops, CAG roster musicians:

    • Identify community needs

    • Transform these needs into projects

    • Pitch to fund their project

    • Launch their project

    • Network for social impact

    After completing the training’s five modules, participants apply the knowledge and skills acquired to write and pitch a high-impact artistic project before a panel of experts.
