Help Us to Preserve Free Music Concerts in Verdi Square Park

Welcome to the Verdi Square Festival of the Arts GoFundMe page!

Since 2006, we've been sponsoring free public concerts every September in beautiful Verdi Square Park. Opera, Musical Theatre, and Jazz are staples, but we're eclectic and have been known to feature Bluegrass, Klezmer, and Dixieland.

Our concerts feature students and recent graduates from NYC's fine music conservatories, resulting in high-caliber productions while offering young performers valuable experience as they embark upon their professional careers. At the same time, our audience enjoys costless access to Opera and many other musical genres often beyond the means of many (if not most) in our City.

Because we maintain no office and our staff is entirely volunteer, we have virtually no overhead other than the production cost of our concerts. We are privately funded and completely dependent upon donations for our continued survival. We are fundraising to cover the staging expenses of our concerts and ensure the continuation of our free public performances.

Thank you for considering the Verdi Square Festival of the Arts for your personal outreach. Your support is sincerely appreciated and will help keep music sounding in our Park.
