The Prometheus Symphony Orchestra
is entirely supported by member dues and by contributions from you, our audience, in order to
fund our Music Director and guest artist salaries, publicity, printing, rental of performance space,
and rental of score and parts. Each concert costs about $2000 and expenses continue to increase.
As a non-profit organization, we depend upon the generosity of our patrons to supplement member contributions. We have multiple giving levels and all gifts are acknowledged in our programs:
- Contributor · up to $24
- Supporter · $25 to $49
- Donor: $50 to $99
- Benefactor: $100 to $249
- Patron: $250 to $499
- Conductor's Circle: $500 or more
We are providing a special opportunity for you to help us continue to present
the exciting programs our audiences have come to expect. For a $200 tax-deductible donation,
a concert program will prominently feature your name, the name of your family, or the name of a
loved one. In addition, you may indicate your desire to make a specific donation.
The program might read: "This performance of the Firebird Suite was made possible through
the generosity of Neal Smithson".
We also have space available in our programs from $25 for a business-card sized advertisement to $150 for a full-page advertisement, with reduced rates for ads running in multiple programs. To purchase an advertisement, please contact John Gilbert at the phone number shown below.
We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to help us bring fine concert music to people of all financial means. Won't you please send a check today?
Sincerely,
John Gilbert, Ph.D.
