Our musicians travel from all corners of the state to perform with your Space Coast Symphony Orchestra, and one of the most meaningful ways our community supports them is by opening their homes. For each concert, we typically need accommodations for about eight to ten musicians, and every host makes a real difference.
By welcoming a musician into your home for a few evenings around concert time, you help us reduce the significant cost of lodging—saving your Symphony more than $50,000 each year—and allowing more of our resources to go directly toward the music you love.
Even more importantly, hosting is a wonderful way to build personal connections. Many hosts tell us that “their” musicians quickly become friends, and these shared experiences often turn into lasting relationships. It’s a simple, heartfelt way to support the Symphony while getting to know the artists who bring our performances to life.
If you have a spare room, guest house, or other accommodations you’d be willing to share this season, we would be deeply grateful. Please fill out the form below, and our Host Home Coordinator, Rebecca Barnett, will reach out to you after your submission.
Thank you for considering this special way to support your SCSO and our musicians.
“Being a host family is an experience that is both rewarding and enriching. I’d love to share just a few of the highlights over the past year. Meeting a young violinist, Danut and his Dad who came all the way from Romania. Learning about the newest innovations in music notation software with John. Sitting in on a music lesson given by an outstanding teacher, William. Having a private horn concert in our living room by Jennifer. Sipping wine at midnight with the always charming violist, Juan Carlos. Diversity is a treasure and music, the international language of love. Thank you, SCSO, for giving us the opportunity to spread that love and call all these wonderful musicians our friends.”
