GRAMMY Museum\u00ae Mississippi<\/strong> has established a new three-year partnership with Atmos Energy<\/strong> thanks to a transformational $50,000 commitment that will help expand educational access for students across the state of Mississippi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each year, GRAMMY Museum Mississippi serves thousands of students through interactive educational experiences designed to inspire creativity, critical thinking, and cultural understanding through music.
