The Museum Of Christian & Gospel Music Set To Open Labor Day Weekend

The Museum of Christian & Gospel Music (The C&G) is set to open Labor Day weekend in the heart of Music City, just steps from the Ryman Auditorium.

Presented by The Gospel Music Association (GMA), The Museum of Christian & Gospel Music will be an immersive, interactive experience where visitors can step into powerful stories of faith and transformation, hear stirring music and even create remixes of iconic songs. From the soaring harmonies of gospel greats to today’s chart-topping Christian songs, The C&G will honor the full spectrum of Christian and gospel music past, present and future.

The C&G will be a living, breathing part of the industry, offering live performances, workshops, interviews and artist encounters. The museum’s rotating collections will feature music milestones, timeless memorabilia and more. Special inaugural ticket pricing, commemorative items and exclusive Founding Memberships are available here.

There will be a variety of series for all genres, including Podcasts, Brown Bag Lunch Symposiums, Writers Workshops and more. Limited tickets are on sale today for the initial Legacy Series event at the museum, with its first-ever Artist in Residence: 16-time Dove Award-winner and three-time GMA Hall of Fame inductee, Russ Taff. Fans can connect with him in powerful new ways through this special program.

“The Christian Music industry has been rooted in Nashville for decades and people have dreamed of this museum for just as long,” says Steve Gilreath, Executive Director of The Museum. “Now, right in the heart of downtown, we’re creating a space where people can touch the music that has touched us all.”

GMA President Jackie Patillo adds, “The GMA mission to expose, promote, and celebrate the Gospel through music is being fulfilled in this first-ever Museum of Christian & Gospel Music. Thanks to our Board of Directors, artists, and supporters, a team of experts have come together to present the many diverse styles including gospel, CCM, Southern Gospel, rap, hip hop, and worship, which will all be celebrated with the power of its life-changing message filling the air.”
