As a hub for both musicians and music lovers, Distrik Kollective is simultaneously committed to fostering the creative and economic development of D.C.-area artists, and to showing enthusiasts what’s hot on the local scene and where to see and hear great music.
We are constantly creating opportunities to showcase local artists and enable them to hone their sound by performing live – through the Creators Jam, our flagship program – and by partnering with other organizations, including the Atlas Performing Arts Center and WUMC radio.
Our goal is to offer musicians the support, promotion and performance opportunities they need to succeed, and to enhance the arts experience for music lovers in D.C. and beyond.
We believe our strength comes from community, and that our creativity is enriched by collaboration. As an artist-driven network rooted in the District of Columbia, we have received grant funding from the D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities.
