MAMM CoLLABORATIONS

The Maine Academy of Modern Music partners with numerous Maine-based organizations to provide live music across the city of Portland and beyond.

We are always looking at ways to bring music to community projects. Please feel free to contact MAMM if you have ideas for partnerships and collaborations.

Carnaval is a winter festival in downtown Portland that is held in the month of March. There is live music, ice sculptures, bonfires, warm food and drink, and more with MAMM bands performing all weekend. The proceeds from Carnaval for 2023 and 2024 will be going directly to MAMM.

The Mallet Brothers DownEast

March 30, 2023

As part of MAMM’s outreach efforts in 2023, we are focusing on bringing live music to DownEast Schools that have been affected by staffing shortages in their music departments. The overall outreach goal is to continue to support these schools in their broader musical programming while simultaneously exposing students to Maine bands from across the state (including MAMM bands!).
