Why MEC?

MEC works to Stabilize, Protect, Connect, Sustain and Grow music education and resources within all areas of the local live and produced music scene. We have a direct relationship with entities that already exist to propel music. Diversity and inclusion of all voices are an integral part of our foundation. The Columbus Region, known locally as the Chattahoochee Valley, is comprised of seven counties: six in Georgia, and one in Alabama. Collective efforts continue to strengthen the region’s economy. The impact is clear in recent projects, such as the allocation of more than $100 million to fund cultural arts projects, vital infrastructure support, the 22-mile RiverWalk, and the Columbus RiverCenter. Over the last decade, the region has experienced the benefits of more than $2.8 billion in new capital investment and 18,000 new jobs. Arts & Culture – Amazing Columbus Georgia
