Friends of the Santa Monica Symphony

Friends of the Santa Monica Symphony was formed to give the orchestra the kind of sustained support that only an organized group can offer. Groups are more effective in fundraising and in promoting the ideals of the orchestra. The life of any cultural organization depends on its relationship with the world around it. As a support group, Friends can create greater awareness of the wonderful work of the Santa Monica Symphony. By expanding our audience base and developing a larger following we can perpetuate support for the orchestra.

By forming Friends we also hope to do more for the supporters of the Symphony. Friends are offered benefits that show our appreciation. Participating in social events hosted by Friends lets our supporters know that they are not alone in their loyalty and giving and offers them a chance to interact with other like-minded music lovers. Becoming a Friend gives our supporters other opportunities to help the Santa Monica Symphony. They may have other resources they want to offer, be it their time, their talent, or circumstances that can benefit the orchestra. By having a chance to meet orchestra members and attend talks and lectures given by our musical director Allen Gross and other invited lecturers, Friends will have a closer sense of the artistic aspects of the Santa Monica Symphony, and in turn can be more effective ambassadors.

Please visit the information table located in the lobby area of the auditorium or call (310) 395-6330.
