The Levitt Foundation is thrilled to partner with the Tennessee Entertainment Commission, awarding six communities based in Tennessee with multi-year Levitt AMP matching grants, with support from the Tennessee Department of Economic & Community Development and the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development. This project marks the Levitt Foundation’s first joint partnership with a specific state.
Through this partnership, the State and the Foundation together awarded matching grants up to $40K per year to small to mid-sized cities throughout Tennessee in 2026, 2027 and 2028—see grantees below. The funding supports free outdoor concerts featuring high-caliber entertainment in a broad array of music genres, amplifying stages across the state with 175+ free concerts for Tennesseans of all ages and backgrounds to enjoy.
Applications for the 2026-2028 grant period are now closed.
