2024 Annual Fund Drive

Partner with us to reach our goal of $200,000

All donations are tax-deductible!

How your gift helps

The Johnstown Symphony Orchestra’s Annual Fund Drive provides crucial operating support to ensure the sustenance of the organization during a time of need. As with symphony orchestras nationwide, the price of a concert ticket covers only a fraction of the expenses required to put on concerts, sustain educational programming, and serve the community through the many avenues music provides for growth, learning, fulfillment, and community pride.

Led by campaign co-chairs Karen Azer, JSO Board of Trustees, and Edward Sheehan, Jr., President and CEO of Concurrent Technologies Corporation, the campaign had its public launch with more than $40,000 in personal pledges by the JSO Board of Trustees and Advisors, and $10,000 additional from Concurrent Technologies Corporation.

Music Director James Blachly leads the artistic vision with creativity and continued connection to the needs of our community, with a goal to increase access to music for all and ensure excellence and excitement are part of every experience.
