Becoming a sponsor of the Southwest Michigan Symphony Orchestra (SMSO) is an investment you can truly feel good about. Sponsorship of a Symphony concert series, a single concert, an education outreach program or underwriting a guest artist, is a wonderful way to support the artistic programming of the Symphony.
Our education and community programs would not be possible without the generous support of individuals, community partners, local businesses, and corporations in our community. A sponsorship of the SMSO allows us to maintain artistic excellence, present world-class guest artists to the community and provide vital music education and engagement programs. There are many ways for you to play a crucial role and each offer its own experiences and rewards.
The SMSO has strong relationships with many local businesses who provide us with in-kind support — from hotel rooms to restaurant meals, advertising and audio visual equipment. If you believe your company could provide the SMSO with goods or services that might benefit us and help us operate more efficiently — and if you’re interested in the possibilities sponsorship might afford your business — let’s explore ideas!
