BOARD MATCH CHALLENGE!
Though we may still be physically distanced, the Symphony’s connection to our community has never been more paramount. Through your support, you’ve demonstrated the mutual appreciation, investment and trust that binds us.
This relationship between the Symphony and the Santa Cruz community is our guiding light, shaping our history and our future. Through these times, you are our foremost consideration. We celebrate your central role as our audience by providing you with safe ways to engage with our artistry, such as our Symphony at Home series, High Notes magazine and keeping you informed of our plans and preparations for future events.
The Symphony’s education programs are still in full swing, despite the challenges of distance learning. Our county’s schools have received virtual musician visits from our orchestra members, to teach children about their instruments and how an orchestra works. Carnegie Hall’s Link Up curriculum is being implemented after working with the County Office of Education to adapt this program for the virtual classroom. We remain committed to inspiring young children to love and play classical music.
As we position our Symphony to return to the stage safely, we are confident that we will come back stronger than ever. Our Board of Directors is confident too, and they are pledging $40,000 as a matching challenge to the community. Double your impact by making a gift by March 30 and your generosity will be matched dollar-for-dollar by our board.
