Think about how much you’ve invested in music over the years—albums, downloads, CDs, concert tickets.

This week, we’re asking you to make one more meaningful investment. Take what you’d normally spend in a month on music and donate it to the Minneapolis Sound Museum. Your gift helps preserve the artists, stories, and sounds that put Minneapolis on the global music map—and ensures future generations can feel that same inspiration.
