Allyson , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. We’d love to hear about a project that you’ve worked on that’s meant a lot to you.
Over a year ago now, I founded Concert Music Outreach Collective; a non-profit organization whose mission is to combat the disparities in classical music access by providing concerts to underserved communities.

Sean Penzo Blog | September 2024
A major point that I tend to touch on in many of my posts is the importance of arts accessibility. Concert Music Outreach Collective (CMOC) is an organization that is actively working to promote that accessibility. In today’s post, we’ll be taking a look at this wonderful organization, learning more about its mission, its impact, and its goals moving forward. The founder, Allyson Cohen, was kind enough to answer a few questions about their work, so I’ll be including quotes from her about their work.
