Pathways to give.
IMPACTFUL GIVING.
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!
Every gift, large or small, makes a difference. Make an online tax-deductible contribution today at santafesymphony.org/donate or contact our Development Team:
Development Director, Katie Rountree at 505.600.3976 or krountree@santafesymphony.org
Events & Annual Fund Manager, Laura Witte at 505.552.3916 or lwitte@santafesymphony.org.
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.
We are always seeking local businesses to partner with! Benefits include a variety of marketing opportunities. While 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—a contribution in any amount will highlight your business to our discerning audience.
Donors to Symphony Circles enjoy intimate gatherings in exquisite homes of our Symphony Family; preferred subscription seating through advance season announcements; complimentary concert tickets to introduce music lovers to The Symphony; a standing invitation to post-concert receptions at Galerie Züger; Program Book acknowledgment; and dress rehearsal invitations.
Are you uplifted by the beautiful voices of The Symphony Chorus? Do you enjoy seeing families and children experience free music in the beautiful Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi? Supporting The Symphony Chorus enables us to provide world-class choral music all season long! By becoming a “Friend of The Symphony Chorus,” you will be directly supporting more than 60 outstanding choral musicians in our Santa Fe artistic community.
Curious to learn more about the musicians you see on stage? Adopt a musician and honor our individual orchestral and choral musicians! Our artists are all local, fully professional musicians. When you adopt a musician, you have the opportunity to get to know them better while helping us maintain high standards of professional support for artists of The Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra & Chorus. *Adoptions are for one year and subject to availability.
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.
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.
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!
