Support the Symphony

The Southwest Michigan Orchestra is a vital community resource. We know from Cornerstone and other surveys that one of the reasons new-comers relocate to the St. Joseph-Benton Harbor area is the quality of life the area affords, including access to various arts and cultural activities, including the Symphony.

Ticket sales account for only about a third of any symphony orchestra's income. For the rest, we count on individual contributions, corporate sponshorships, foundation grants, fund-raising activities (like our Holiday Home Tour), and Symphony League support.

Contributions support not only our public concerts but also our educational programs. For example, the Orchestra presents in-school concerts every year for more than 3,000 grade-school children. To continue and expand these efforts - as well as to offer exciting seasons like this one - we rely on your support. Please add a contribution on the "Annual Fund" line of the order form when you purchase your tickets. Donations are tax-deductible and are recognized in the program book.
