Pathways to give.

IMPACTFUL GIVING.

Our supporters make all the difference
Just think about how much more we could do with your help

 

When you give to The Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra & Chorus, you help foster extraordinary artistic talent, unite our community, and inspire our youngest and most in need. Ticket sales cover just 25% of our operating costs—for the rest, we rely on generous donors like you.

You may designate your annual contribution to several different aspects of the Santa Fe Symphony each season. Your gift(s) can be applied towards any or all of our programs and whichever memberships interest you!

CONCERT SPONSORSHIPS
Make a difference — $5,000 | $10,000 | $20,000


Is there a specific Symphony performance during the season that excites you? Whether you love one of the pieces, the composer, or everything about it, you can designate your gift for a specific concert.  Individuals and businesses can directly support a Symphony or Chorus concert through sponsorship—bridging the gap between the concert cost and ticket revenue.

BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS
Let’s connect and ensure the future!


We are always seeking local business partners!
Benefits include a variety of marketing opportunities.
We are particularly indebted to Concert Sponsors — a level which allows us to bring live music to The Lensic and other venues across Santa Fe — but a contribution in any amount will highlight your business to our discerning audience.

The Symphony brings world-renowned soloists to Santa Fe. If you enjoy violin virtuosos and piano prodigies, you can directly support the cost of bringing these artists to the stage through a Reach for the Stars sponsorship. One of the many donor benefits you will receive at this level is an invitation to all Galerie Züger post-concert receptions where you can mingle with guest artists, musicians, donors, and conductors.

TRIBUTE GIFTS
Pay what you wish!


We welcome gifts made in celebration of a friend or family member, to commemorate an occasion, or to remember a loved one. Memorium or honorarium gifts help make it possible for our musicians to bring beautiful music to the stage, time after time. Tribute gifts are acknowledged in our Program Book and a personalized card can be mailed to the honoree informing them of your gift, at your request.

EDUCATION & COMMUNITY
We are the music. Foster the next generation.


With a contribution to our
education and community initiatives, you can earmark your gift for a specific program, such as Mentoring, Senior Serenades, Kids Classical Concerts, or any of The Projects. Help foster extraordinary artistic talent and unite our community with a broad platform of free music education initiatives that are accessible to all. Invest in our community of classical music lovers and future musicians of The Santa Fe Symphony!
