This next phase in The Symphony’s journey creates an unprecedented opportunity to explore new and innovative ways to deliver our mission, capitalize on The Symphony’s reputation for artistic excellence, and leverage our experience partnering with schools and youth throughout the region in music education programs.
Your support is both inspiring and deeply appreciated. Thanks to your generous and heartfelt donations, music education faculty are empowered, multiple programs are thriving, and our professional musicians are sharing their passion and artistry with our next generation of musicians and the community.
The Santa Barbara Symphony is a great investment:
For over 70 years, The Symphony has been here when our community needed us most—in times of community celebration and in times of tragedy.
Led by Board Chair Janet Garufis, Music & Artistic Director Nir Kabaretti, and President and CEO Kathryn R. Martin, the leadership team is building unprecedented fiscal strength, community partnerships, transparent communication, and exciting momentum.
The Symphony is both an economic driver and a vital part of Santa Barbara’s cultural fabric—employing local instructors, coaches, and musicians; generating business for restaurants and shops; attracting cultural tourists; and showcasing the extraordinary creative community that calls Santa Barbara home.
The Symphony’s award-winning music education programs are unique in our region. As the only youth orchestra program in the region connected to a professional symphony and a college, The Santa Barbara Symphony’s multi-level Youth Ensembles program presents a unique learning opportunity for young musicians to develop their skills and connect with music and each other.
