GLAMA is an organization dedicated to enjoying and learning roots music from a variety of genres such as folk, bluegrass, blues, country, singer-songwriters, and more, played acoustically with stringed instruments. We welcome players and singers of all abilities to participate and learn from each other at our regularly scheduled monthly gatherings!

‘Tis the Season of Giving

 

Your GLAMA Family has been busy this last year. We’ve provided beginner sessions, jam sessions, workshops, concerts, sing-alongs, community outreach, and volunteer opportunities. We’ve been so glad to share with you the privilege of keeping Americana music alive in our community! We are eager to continue this mission and even grow! But we can’t do it without your support. Dive right into the Donate Button to start your giving! You can donate one lump sum, or divide it up over monthly installments to spread the giving across the whole year.  If you choose to share your name with your donation, we’d love to give thanks by hosting your name in our upcoming Sponsors Section!

Good news!

GLAMA is now the grateful recipient of a grant from the Irving S. Gilmore Foundation! This grant will help us build future master classes, concerts, and community events to continue our mission of performing and preserving acoustic music in Southwest Michigan! A special thanks to all those who helped support this endeavor.

GLAMA would like to publicly thank the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs for awarding a grant to our organization for the purpose of funding anti-racism training. We are also grateful to our state elected officials including Governor Whitmer, Senator McCann, and Representative Morse for their support of the arts.
