Thank you for your interest in performing at the Museum of Making Music.  To be considered for a performance at the Museum please read these guidelines and submit a “Performance Proposal Application” form.  All selected programs are presented by the Museum as part of our annual programming series and relate to our mission and core messages:

Mission:

To celebrate the rich history and encourage the future of music making.

Core Messages:

1. Music is a global human phenomenon but also an intimate personal experience that affects my life everyday.

2. The interaction of people, instruments, and imagination makes music.

3. The interaction of music and society causes shifts in musical styles, innovation in musical instruments and the uses of instruments in making music.

Programs are selected depending on how they fit with our special exhibitions and annual programming themes.  Programs are typically booked six to twelve months in advance.

Please note that the Museum does not rent out our performance space for personal recitals, CD release parties, or private performances.

If you would like to be part of our Local Flavor Concert Series, this series highlights local musicians who perform and/or reside primarily in San Diego County.  If you do not fit into this description, please select General Concert as the type of program on the proposal form.

The Museum receives many requests and unfortunately we cannot accommodate everyone.  Please do not contact us after submitting; we will follow up within six weeks of receiving your proposal.  If you are not selected we will keep your materials on file for two years. We wish you the best of luck with your creative journey.  Thank you for doing your part to bring music to others!
