These intimate, interactive performances will be held outdoors in beautiful Central Oregon settings. As is customary, our “Music & Friends” events include a one set performance (no intermission), light hors d’oeuvres, and wine.

The foundation will match the first $5,000 of funds raised during the challenge.

We have met this challenge for the past five years, doubling the impact of our generous donors. This challenge coincides with the launch of our second season of Summer Soirees and free Pop-Up Concerts, allowing our donors to support and experience our programs first-hand,” states Executive Director Isabelle Senger.
