Our 2024-25 Season

Creative. Surprising. Joyous.

Subscriptions are now available.

Attend all of next season’s concerts for $175 - that’s just $25 per concert.

You’ll be getting a 17% discount versus single tickets, and will receive one

This year we have a special gift for subscribers who purchase before June 30:
the opportunity to win a beautiful quilt designed and donated by the Modern Quilt Guild (see below).

From the quilt artists:

"Just as a group of musicians each plays their own part in a symphony, each block plays its own part in this quilt. Each instrument adds its unique voice to create the melodies and harmonies, all playing to a single rhythm. The ear can pick out the piccolo from the timpani, and the eye can focus on an hourglass or economy block, but when all the artists lend their talents, the result is a joyous masterpiece."
