Musical
Chairs
The Musical Chair program enables donors to form a deeper relationship with the orchestra through associations with particular musicians. Donors have special engagement moments with their musician throughout the year, and provide significant support to the orchestra in achieving its artistic and community vision. Musical Chairs start from $3,000 and are renewable annually.
