Celebrating Cohort 1 Momentum
As we begin to plan and look ahead, we are celebrating the momentum of our first Global Impact Musician cohort. Over the past year, GIM students have grown as artists, collaborators, and creative leaders. They have expanded their professional networks, built new artistic collaborations, won awards, earned new jobs, increased their income, and strengthened the way they present themselves and their work.
