At the Phoenix Conservatory of Music, we know that it is important not just to support the Parents and Students, but our artists and the artistic community in whole.  In an effort to better serve working, professional artists in the valley, PCM will be launching our Artists membership in the Spring 2009.  The Artists Membership will be a paid membership for a nominal annual fee of $20.00 per year.  It will provide artists with access to professional development sessions, networking events, jam sessions that will invite and inspire new creative collaborations, and access to Fractured Atlas, a service organization for artists that provides support through media and publicity assistance, webinars and professional development, and discounted liability and healthcare insurance!  Stay tuned for more information, or call 602.353.9900 to be put on the interest list!
