We Exist Of and For the Community
Nothing could be more important to our mission than connecting with the diverse people of our city! Accordingly, our Community Engagement Initiative is a multi-pronged effort that includes full-orchestra concerts at community venues around the city as well as individual musician visits to schools, libraries, hospitals, retirement communities and more. Apart from obvious exposure to our world-class musicians and the wonders of classical and symphonic music, one major goal of our Community Engagement Initiative is to improve the quality of life for people in our city, thereby creating a stronger community for all.
