Options for Giving

Special programs for individual giving include Concert Fund Partners, Sponsor a Player, the Lexington Symphony Public Trusts Centennial Endowment Fund, and Planned Giving.

Lexington Symphony Concert Fund Partners

Established in 2008, the Lexington Symphony Concert Fund Partners provide substantial financial support to enable the orchestra to perform at least one concert each season requiring resources greater than are normally possible, such as:

  • Larger orchestra
  • Prominent guest soloist or multiple soloists
  • High music rental costs for 20th century works still in copyright

This season, the Concert Fund Partners are generously sponsoring the unique performance of the Mahler 8th Symphony of a Thousand with
individual gifts of $1000 or more.  Concert Fund Partners also have the opportunity to sponsor soloists and conductor Jonathan McPhee.

Concert Fund Partners receive special invitations to events with Maestro Jonathan McPhee and members of the orchestra, and are recognized in the program book and at the performance.

Sponsor a Player
Acknowledge a special musician or person in your life through Sponsor a Player. You may honor a player in your name or that of someone you love; let us know the individual player or instrument you would like to sponsor, and we will include a special acknowledgment in the program book. Sponsorship levels are $250 per concert or $1000 for the season.

Lexington Symphony Public Trusts Centennial Endowment Fund
In 2010, in honor of the centennial anniversary of the founding of the Trustees of Public Trusts of the Town of Lexington, the Trustees established the Lexington Symphony Public Trusts Centennial Endowment Fund.

The Trustees unanimously identified the Lexington Symphony as a compelling organization to support and recognize in honor of their 100th anniversary.  They selected the Lexington Symphony to be the recipient of this funding for several reasons, including its broad appeal to Lexingtonians of all ages and its committed, dedicated, and engaged leaders and supporters.  The Symphony has grown significantly to become an important cultural institution in Lexington and, in being so honored by the Trustees, joins the ranks of other significant Lexington institutions such as Cary Memorial Library and Lexington Education Foundation.

Income from the Lexington Symphony endowment will be used to supplement the Lexington Symphony’s annual operating budget, which comprises many creative projects from concerts to educational outreach.  The Endowment Fund provides an ideal opportunity for all supporters.

Planned Giving
Help guarantee the future of Lexington Symphony by giving through estate planning to the Lexington Symphony Public Trusts Centennial Endowment Fund. Income from this fund sustains our continued creative development within our community.
