Every year since 1901, the American Federation of Musicians Local 159 in Mansfield, Ohio has provided free concerts for the community and the greater Richland County area, including Mansfield, Bellville, Loudonville, Galion, Ashland, Crestline, Lexington, and Shelby, just to name a few.
The AFM Local 159 is a professional musician non-profit organization dedicated to giving back to the community each and every year. We’ve been able to do this with the financial support from the Music Performance Trust Fund, local businesses, and community members. Your donations ensure that these free concerts and other local support opportunities continue well into the future. All donations made to the AFM Local 159 are tax deductible.
We would be honored to partner with you to continue to provide free music and support musicians in our community. We hope you’ll consider donating.
