The United Church of Christ Musicians Association, Inc. (UCCMA) is a non-profit, national organization with a membership made up of musicians, clergy and interested laity. We are a grassroots, member-supported association run entirely by volunteers. UCCMA was founded in 1993 by a small group of musicians in Connecticut who felt a need for professional support from colleagues in our denomination. We incorporated in 1994 and held our first national conference in 1998. As we have grown both in membership and mission, our focus has broadened to include individuals with many different roles, both formal and informal, in their churches’ music and worship life. People from other denominations have always been welcome.

We offer professional development and support, education programs, networking, resources, publications and conferences.

To those who join UCCMA, we provide:

• UCC Musicians News, an electronic newsletter published six times a year
• Worship, Music and Ministry, a professional journal published digitally three times a year
• Job placement listing service
• Biennial national conference offering an array of workshops and worship services. View our list of past conferences and where they were located.
• Online address directory
  
• Supportive environment for learning skills and connecting with colleagues
