Ways To Give
Since 1972, regional business and educational leaders have recognized the value of investing in the arts for a more vibrant, economically healthy community.
Our cities and towns in Northeastern Pennsylvania are enjoying a renaissance, and the NEPA Philharmonic is a vital element in that revitalization, providing an essential element in promoting diversification, attracting new businesses and rejuvenating pride in our region.
However, it is no secret that the arts struggle to meet financial obligations and cannot subsist through concert ticket sales alone. In fact, ticket sales account for less than 42% of our annual budget.
Consequently, the NEPA Philharmonic's success depends upon businesses and organizations committing to our orchestra with monetary donations and sponsorships. Businesses, organizations, and other supporters of the Philharmonic earn the reputation of being a good neighbor, willing to give back to the community in support of the arts.

Crescendo Family Concert
In response to our regional need for music education and appreciation for our youngest residents, the NEPA Philharmonic, in partnership with many other regional arts organizations, will again present the Crescendo Family Concert Series. Designed for children ages 3 and up, along with their families, our Family Concert will include a web site that contains an interactive/animated page for children to prepare for the concert, a pre-concert interactive activity period the day of the concert and the performance itself, “From PA to the Pacific”, performed by our orchestra. We are seeking sponsorships to make this event available to children of all socio-economic levels, recognizing that music is the universal language, helping children excel in language skills development, reading readiness, critical thinking, talking, listening and creating - all crucial elements to the educational, psychological and social preparedness of small children entering school. Sponsorship for this event allows us to provide this high quality experience to children and their families who may not otherwise be able to attend such a program.

Masterworks Pre-Concert Lecture Series
Prior to each masterworks concert throughout the season, Music Director Lawrence Loh will give a brief talk regarding the music you are about to hear. Knowing the background of outstanding compositions before listening to them helps to create a better understanding and appreciation of the music when it is heard. Sponsoring a pre-concert lecture is another way for businesses to support outreach and education.
