About Appleton Community Music

Appleton Community Music, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to providing fundraising support for original music experiences in Downtown Appleton.

Since its launch in 2013, Mile of Music has sparked a growing appreciation for original music in the Fox Cities. The goal of Appleton Community Music is to help ensure the festival’s sustainability and nurture the growing demand for other original music experiences it has inspired.

Your donation to Appleton Community Music goes toward funding:

  • Original music experiences in Downtown Appleton, including performing artist fees for all Mile artists
  • Artist Hospitality, including lodging and food, and support for Volunteer and Artist Care programs
  • Events that inspire respect for artists and music appreciation
  • Participatory music education experiences through the Music Education Team
  • Experiences that foster inclusion, diversity and community through original music

“Watching my artists being taken care of, like they deserve to be, was paramount. They were so happy to be there and I heard, “This is my favorite festival of all time,” over and over again. I want artists who are on the road to experience the oasis that is Mile of Music.”
