General Information
IN CONCERT is a non-profit organization composed of volunteer staff lead by a 5-member steering committee. The IN CONCERT project existed since 2002 and was officially recognized as an association in December 2005. Most of our funding up to that point came from cultural centers or from private societies with the “French Cultural Center“and the “Goethe institute” acting as main sponsors for our activities. Following its official recognition, IN CONCERT is planning for expansion of its activities to cover major cities and to establish permanent venues for cultural events with a full-time dedicated staff. The main activities of in concert cover workshops, concerts, jam sessions, exchanges between musicians from different backgrounds and communication around music.
Mission and Objectives

IN CONCERT seeks to act as a catalyst for discovery and development of actual music and cultural activities in Lebanon.
Its main mission is to decentralize musical activities from Beirut towards non-conventional spaces within the capital, and other cities and towns.
IN CONCERT provides the opportunity for talented musicians, young and/or professional; national and/or international, with different styles to engage audiences.
IN CONCERT equally hopes to initiate exchanges between professionals and amateurs at the national and international levels through jam sessions and workshops. IN CONCERT is in favor of artistic creativity, and acts as a source of information and venue of dialogue and communication between the audience and musicians.
