M3F returns for its 16th year and continues on their mission of giving back to the local community!
For 16 years McDowell Mountain Music Festival has remained steadfast in their devotion of giving back to the community. Last year M3F donated $65,000 to local charities and this year the festival will continue its mission by uniting music, art, and local flare. Adopting the 3 Cs, Community, Culture, and Charity, the festival organizers have built a thriving community upon an authentic vision that has manifested into an enriching three-day experience.
Charities that have benefitted from M3F include Habitat For Humanity of Northern Arizona and Smiles For Special Needs, along with the Phoenix Children’s Hospital as well. Since their debut in 2004, they’ve donated over a million dollars to local organizations and continue to make an impact on the community.
