Gospel Music Heritage Month
Celebrate and support Gospel Music Heritage Month with Integrity Music
In June, the Gospel Music Channel television network joined with Senators, Congress, The Recording Academy®, and the Gospel Music Association to launch the “Gospel Music Heritage Month” initiative. The dual legislation passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate designates September 2008 as “Gospel Music Heritage Month,” honoring gospel music for its valuable long-standing contributions to American culture.
Gospel Music Heritage Month honors a true American art form for its vast contributions to our culture, bringing a message of hope and inspiration to people of all racial, ethnic and religious backgrounds. Gospel Music Channel, The Recording Academy, the Gospel Music Association and the entire Gospel/Christian music industry will celebrate the inaugural Gospel Music Heritage Month across multiple media platforms, concerts and events this September. The greatest names in Gospel Music will be featured on-air, online and on-demand through network premieres, documentaries, original specials and series, short-form and interstitial pieces, music videos and more.
We are encouraging people to celebrate Gospel Music Heritage Month by attending concerts, events, watching and listening to Gospel music, learning and reading about Gospel music and more.
