Generous gifts of any size keep us culturally vibrant and educationally connected with our community.
2026/2027 Season
If the Symphony depended solely on ticket sales, the concert would end at intermission.
The fact is, ticket sales cover 30% of operating costs for the Auburn Symphony. Individual donations and grants must cover the other 70%. Please consider the value of classical music in your community, give generously, and make sure the Auburn Symphony continues to fill your life with the joys of live music.
