Roots of American Music: Roots of American Music, founded in 1999, is a 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) nonprofit organization based in Cleveland, Ohio. ROAM employs 20 artist/educators who reach over 40, 000 individuals annually with educational music programs. Many of those served are from low income, diverse, or disadvantaged communities. Through ROAM residencies, assemblies and public performances, participants discover the power, beauty and significance of traditional American music and culture. ROAM residencies and assemblies are aligned with state and school district standards in arts, social studies, history and other academic subjects. This non traditional approach to teaching incorporates the arts into the educational curriculum, while fostering excitement and the joy of music. ROAM is especially thankful to its many individual, foundation, and corporate supporters and for the passage of Issue 18 by the voters of Cuyahoga County, Ohio.
