$20,000 for 20 Years of MVP

       HELP US RAISE $20,000  FOR MILL VALLEY PHILHARMONIC’S
                                                   20TH ANNIVERSARY

Mill Valley Philharmonic (MVP) is Marin County’s premier nonprofit, community orchestra. For 20 years, we have been providing high-quality, local and live symphonic music, ranging from classical to brand new works. Truly a grassroots organization, we believe that experiencing music together unites our spirits and strengthens our community. 

                   WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW MORE THAN EVER!

We had envisioned the 2019-20 season as a banner year for MVP, featuring special programming, a new Artistic Director, and a Gala in celebration of our 20th Anniversary.

Due to the recent health directives and our compassion and concern for the health and well-being of our musicians and audience members, we have had to postpone the Gala and cancel our March concerts. It is uncertain whether the program we had planned for late May will go forward.

This is the first time in two decades that our dedicated musicians have been unable to get together. We deeply miss playing – both with each other and for our audience – and the loss in revenue from these events is a singular challenge for MVP.

The good news is that this hiatus will be temporary. We have rescheduled the Gala for October 18th, and we have an exciting 2020-21 season planned, including performances of Beethoven’s Symphony #6 ("Pastoral") and Mahler’s Symphony #4.

          PLEASE HELP US RAISE $20,000 FOR OUR 20TH YEAR!

Your support will ensure we can resume programming as soon as possible, bringing our unique blend of high quality symphonic music in local spaces back into our community. Here are some ways you can help:

Adopt a musician - $500
Do you have a favorite MVP musician? Sponsor a “Musical Chair” in their honor for a donation of $500.

Sponsor a rehearsal - $250
It costs MVP over $250 to rent space for our weekly rehearsals. Help us secure our vital venue by donating $250 to sponsor a rehearsal.

Adopt an instrument - $100
Donate $100, let us know your favorite instrument, and we will use your contribution to cover the cost of providing sheet music for that instrument next season.

Become a sustaining donor
Pledge a sustaining donation of $10, $25, $50 or $100 per month (or whatever amount works for you) through our online portal on the DONATE page at www.millvalleyphilharmonic.org .
