Program
Symphony Devotee Opportunities The Danville Symphony is an aggregate of experienced adult and talented young musicians from Danville and the surrounding area. We are sponsored by the City of Danville Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism which provides some funding. Various grants and private donations in the past have provided for vitally needed equipment. We continue to solicit your contributions to support the expansion of our repertoire, venue fees, music performance rights fees, solo artist fees, and repair and maintenance of equipment. Occasionally "fill-in" musicians are needed when specific instrumentalists are not available in the area. We hope you will deem the "Symphony Devotee Program" worthy of your consideration in your support of the arts in our community. Through your contributions, the Danville Symphony Orchestra will continue to bring fine music to this community and remain a viable cultural asset. All contributions to The Danville Symphony Orchestra are tax deductible under current IRS regulations.

Danville Symphony Orchestra Endowment “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they will never sit in.” - Unknown Greek Author The Danville Symphony has been chosen as the recipient of a major gifts challenge for this season. Through a generous $5,000 challenge grant, between now and June 30, 2017, any gifts to the Symphony Endowment will be matched.
