Fort Wayne Launches Music Office

Fort Wayne just unveiled its brand-new Music Office, a bold step to transform the city into a thriving music destination — not just for gear shops, but for live events in parks, restaurants, and even the airport.

With 17 concrete recommendations, the Music Office is now rolling out action — including hiring its first Executive Director — to build a sustainable, citywide music ecosystem.
