HQ Function

Serves as the central hub for program administration, artist support services, development, communications, and strategic leadership for the organization's national initiatives.

Notable Features:

Located in the historic Hamm Building, the office provides a functional and accessible space for staff operations and occasional small meetings. It is not primarily a public performance or exhibition venue.

Work Culture:

Collaborative, mission-driven, and deeply committed to equity and the artistic and professional development of composers. The environment fosters creativity, advocacy, and community engagement.

HQ Significance:

The headquarters is the operational core for one of the leading national organizations supporting contemporary music composers in the United States, coordinating nationwide programs and resources.

Values Reflected in HQ: The choice of a centrally located, accessible office within a historic building reflects a commitment to community integration, responsible stewardship of resources, and a connection to the cultural fabric of its home city.

Location:

While primarily focused on supporting composers within the United States, the American Composers Forum's impact can extend internationally. The music created by ACF-supported artists is often performed and disseminated globally, contributing to the international contemporary music landscape. ACF also engages in dialogue and learning with international counterparts to share best practices in artist support.
