Notes from the President
The Omaha Symphony
Guild supports the Symphony in many ways - as a volunteer base for its
education programs, as a financial contributor, and as an
organization whose members serve as ambassadors and advocates for
the Symphony throughout the community.
Volunteerism:
Volunteers have
been the foundation and strength of the Omaha Symphony Guild for
over 50 years. The vitality of the Guild is measured by the energy
and creativity of its members. The Omaha Symphony Guild can fit your
interests and your schedule. We invite YOU to become a member of
our organization and help us support the Omaha Symphony Orchestra
and its goals through our fundraising efforts and education
programs. We look forward to welcoming you to the Omaha Symphony
Guild!
Fundraising:
Through the Omaha
Symphony Guild`s fundraising efforts, we provide financial support
for the Omaha Symphony Orchestra, as well as the Omaha Area Youth
Orchestra. The main fundraising projects for the Omaha Symphony
Guild for 2008-09 will be
Music & Masterpieces, the Debutante Ball,
and the Rhapsody into Spring shopping event and Table Art luncheon.
The funds raised from these projects will go to support the many
education programs of the Omaha Symphony.
Education:
Education is the
backbone of the service for the Omaha Symphony Guild. The Guild
provides volunteer support for many of the Symphony education
programs-Mission:Imagination, Instrument Petting Zoo, Celebrate
Creativity, Margre Durham Concerts for Youth, Music Alive!,
the New Music Symposium for Young Composers, and Carnegie Hall`s
Communities LinkUP! Through our support
of all these engaging and interactive programs, the Guild helps the
Omaha Symphony provide a newfound knowledge and appreciation for
orchestral music and the arts to over 35,000 young people in eastern
Nebraska, western Iowa, and beyond. |
