Independent Musicians Organization Budget

FY2015 (July 1, 2014 - June 30, 2015)

Independent Musicians Organization strives not only to benefit musicians outside of CFA, but also to positively impact the community. Independent Musicians Organization will help students connect to other musicians, promote their work, improve their musical collaboration skills, get involved in community service, and share an appreciation of live music with the community. IMO will hold an annual music festival as well as record an album of student work.
