Connecting Philadelphia's Music History with its Future as a Premier Music City



A PRESERVATION - EDUCATION - PROMOTION INITIATIVE 


Cultural Preservation-Economic Development- Social Impact


The streets of Philadelphia are alive with melodies, rhythms, and harmonies that have shaped our city’s diverse cultural identity for centuries. The Semi-Quincentennial in 2026 presents an ideal opportunity to unite all Philadelphians in celebration of our collective identity through the universal language of music. This event will allow us to showcase our unity, history, and uniqueness on the international stage.


There is no single Philadelphia music genre, nor is there just one Philadelphia music story. The Legacy Project will enrich Philadelphia's reputation as a diverse, inclusive, and culturally significant World Heritage City. This initiative will support the music community while positively impacting the neighborhoods and residents where our musical heritage thrives and future legacies live.
