What now: 2026
Black Music City at the Museum of the American Revolution
For the very first time, the Museum of the American Revolution will create a residency for selected musicians from Black Music City, a collaboration between WXPN, WRTI and REC. These resident artists will learn the Museum’s collections, attend programming and educational meetings and then create original musical works focused on contemporary interpretations of the sounds of 1776. These new compositions will be performed in the museum and in venues in the historic district from churches to other museums.
