On April 27, Local 72-147 will be holding its first ever Musicians Solidarity Celebration at City Park (aka Old City Park) near Downtown Dallas. Through a new collaboration with the Dallas Parks and Recreation Department, the Musicians Union will host a community jam session for the enjoyment of the public. The Jam will be held in the Chautauqua Pavilion in the center of the park.

If you are a musician who hasn't joined the professional musicians organization, this is a great time to join. We are currently running a membership drive making it even cheaper to join. Go to www.musiciansdfw.org for more information.

Good food and refreshments will be served. Please bring family, friends and invite fellow musicians to see what our community is really about!

Making a Difference

What is Organizing?

Organizing is people coming together and building power to make real change in their lives. Through face-to-face conversations and a campaign, we build strength to overcome obstacles and opposition.

In traditional union organizing, employees join together to improve their working conditions and have their union recognized by their employer. Musicians, sometimes not legally considered employees, often organize in more innovative ways. Fair Trade Music is a great example of musicians using basic organizing principles to improve their lives.

After the initial campaign is over, mobilizing to secure a good first contract starts. Union contracts are legally enforceable documents that are generally much stronger than individual contracts or personal service agreements. Organizing never stops. Building our union in our work places and planning contract campaigns for expiring agreements is ongoing.
