What is Walk the Beat?
We support kids, businesses and local organizations. We build community through music. We are a non-profit organization (501c3) designed to strengthen and promote city music scenes. Music changes lives, so we:
- Provide kids with free music lessons and instruments
- Partner with and promote live music venues
- Act as a support system for your specific music scene
- Partner with other non-profits to build community through music
We have a street festival too!
Join us Saturday, August 23, 2025, for our annual street music festival!
- Live music everywhere you look in your downtown
- Crowds literally “walk the beat” from show to show
- Music and prizes at every stop
- The music, crowds, and prizes create a vibrant festival atmosphere
- There are three annual full-scale music festivals this summer, in Montegue/White Hall, Grand Haven, and in Albion.
How is Walk the Beat Possible?
Our year round work is made possible by our incredible sponsors (most of which are local businesses), musicians, volunteers, and our generous donors.
