Make Music Upper Perk – Code of Conduct

(updated 10/1/2021)

The primary purpose of Make Music Upper Perk (MMUP) is to organize a free one day music festival on June 21st in the Upper Perkiomen Valley. We endeavor to bring people together to celebrate music and community. To ensure the enjoyment and safety of all, we expect all participants to follow this Code of Conduct.

  1. Be kind.

Treat others with kindness and respect. Be inclusive and friendly. This underlies everything else.

  1. Don’t harass others.

These are not allowed: any kind of physical, verbal, or psychological abuse; threats, intimidation, and bullying; slurs about race, gender, ability, religion, ethnicity, or sexuality; unwanted romantic attention, sexual harassment. If someone asks you to stop doing something and you keep doing it, that’s harassment.

  1. Be nice to our volunteers.

Number 1 up there applies to everyone working the event, too.

  1. Be nice to the venue.

Clean up after yourself. Respect the facility. Be super nice to the venue’s staff. Tip well. (That last one applies everywhere.)

  1. Follow the law and follow the rules.

Enough said. Yes, this includes no alcohol for those under 21 and no drug use.

  6. Follow public health guidelines.

This includes, but is not limited to, guidelines related to safety, hygiene, and Covid-19.

 

The Code of Conduct applies to everyone at the venue, as well as participants on our  social media channels. Audience members, volunteers, musicians, venue staff, and  press will be held to the same standards. Make Music Upper Perk reserves the right to  remove or ban any person who does not adhere to the Code of Conduct.

If you witness any conduct that violates these policies, or believe that you are being or have been harassed, tell the Site Host who will take action to ensure one’s safety and will contact the the top organizers AND/OR contact the organizers directly; Cathy Sweeney 610-310-5026 or Susan Royer 610-858-1297. 

You may also email the organizers at valleyartscene@gmail.com.

The policies and contacts will be posted at venues. You have our personal commitment that harassment won’t be tolerated and we’ll deal with problems promptly. 

Make Music Upper Perk is a non-profit, all volunteer, 501(c)3 organization.
