Artists & Industry Workers

Do you create or champion music? Thank goodness that you’re in the right place, because that makes CIMA your professional organization: we help you find that sweet spot to thrive. Without artists, performers and creators, there isn’t much of a music industry worth talking about. Our musical storytellers are the pulse and lifeblood of Canadian music, and so often, they start out as artist-entrepreneurs, building brands and equity long before anyone takes a chance on them. They’re the prime architects of all things desirable – iconic neighbourhoods, spaces, fashion, trends, and movements. We help artists MAKE IT through vital member benefits, from professional tools for personal growth to complementary mental health services, discounts, and more. That’s on top of accessible education, networking (we make the necessary evil of schmoozing fun!) and showcasing opportunities at home and around the world. We help you understand the biz and the people in it so you can make empowered choices on a stable foundation when it’s time to grow your team.
