Country Music Hall Of Fame And Museum Launches Community Counts Initiative

CMHOF

The COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME AND MUSEUM (CMHOF) has launched its COMMUNITY COUNTS initiative to increase access to the CMHOF for youth and families in DAVIDSON and its bordering counties, including CHEATHAM, ROBERTSON, RUTHERFORD, SUMNER, WILLIAMSON, and WILSON. NASHVILLE Mayor MEGAN BARRY joined CMHOF CEO KYLE YOUNG and Chairman/Board Of Officers And Trustees STEVE TURNER this MORNING (7/6) to announce that the CMHOF COMMUNITY COUNTS initiative would allow youth aged 18 and under living in the aforementioned counties to receive free walk-up admission outside of school hours. Up to two accompanying adults will also receive a 25 percent discount on admission. Additionally, DAVIDSON COUNTY residents of any age may visit the CMHOF free of charge by checking out a COMMUNITY COUNTS PASSPORT from any NASHVILLE PUBLIC LIBRARY, and local families enrolled in public assistance programs may purchase a CMHOF annual family membership for five dollars.

"At its core, the MUSEUM is, and has always been, committed to education surrounding the historical importance of Country music," said YOUNG. "Learning about the rich history of the genre and about those who helped shape it allows us not only to cultivate a sense of pride in our state, but also to understand the significance of TENNESSEE's cultural contributions to AMERICAN history. In 2016, nearly 100,000 guests participated in over 1,000 programs led by our MUSEUM educators. COMMUNITY COUNTS is an extension of our long-standing commitment to serve our locals and provide them with unforgettable experiences."
