for general operating support
Vallejo Symphony Association’s orchestra is the seventh oldest symphony in California, tracing its roots to the early days of the Great Depression. The orchestra is the only ensemble of its kind in Solano County and the Performing Arts Program’s only grantee in Vallejo. In the midst of replacing a longstanding conductor, the organization’s usual three performance season will feature public performances by three potential conductor candidates, generating new interest in the symphony. Renewed funding will support building the capacity of its database, expand its presence in the media, and improve donor and patron participation. Funding will also support the expansion of community programming in schools, and build new programming with local senior centers.
