The Artists Music Guild created the Heritage Awards as an outlet to allow all forms of arts and entertainment to be recognized by their peers. The Heritage Awards are held every year on the second weekend in November. The AMG Heritage Awards presents twenty-five awards to artists in various categories. Despite the term, “music” in our name, we include all forms of artistic expression.
