The Sweetwater Music Hall’s Transition to a 501(c)3 Is An Absolute Game Changer – to the Benefit of Other Nonprofits and our Broader Community!
The legendary Sweetwater Music Hall has legions of longtime followers. But even the diehards might not know how a massively impactful restructuring of the organization over the past year will not only lift up one of the best live music venues in the Bay Area, but will also do so for a network of tangential organizations that can benefit from Sweetwater’s transition. In January, Sweetwater began operating as an IRS registered 501(c)(3) so that they can continue to provide music programming to their community and to their underserved and youth communities. The not-for-profit status also helps the Sweetwater with its fundraising efforts to continue as a pre-eminent independent Bay Area music venue.
