APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN UNTIL MAY 15th AT 6 P.M.!
In these times of physical distancing and social solidarity, we all need to adapt to our new (and temporary) reality and find new ways to connect and share. Music·Musique NB is partnering the Department of Tourism, Heritage and Culture to launch the NB AT HOME program. We are proud to contribute to the wellbeing of our music community by providing paid opportunities for musicians to present live music performances via social media. This also is a great opportunity for people to support the local scene in the comfort of their own homes!

Music·Musique NB encourages submissions from members of diverse communities, including Indigenous artists, artists of colour, artists with disabilities, artists from the LGBTQ+ community, and artists who identify with other intersectional and marginalized groups.
