Access Music City: Community Service Event

  • Access Music City is a program sponsored by EmpowerTN that provides a “win-win” for Nashville-area businesses, their current or potential patrons who have disabilities, and the Nashville community at-large by identifying accessibility-friendly facilities and services so that all citizens of and visitors to Nashville can make informed choices of where to go in the city. A short training on the program will be provided, followed by an opportunity for participants to go into the city itself to map accessible and inaccessible locations for the organization’s database.
