Board of Directors
Meet your board.
Nine volunteers govern this orchestra — four of whom also play in it. They set the budget, protect the mission, and make sure a kid can still walk into a concert for free.
This is your orchestra.
The board’s job is to keep two things true at once: that the music stays ambitious, and that the door stays open. Everyone on it lives here, and everyone serves without pay.
Who’s at the table
The board.
Community leaders, business owners, and working musicians who give their time to keep this orchestra strong.

How it works
No mystery about it.
| Meetings | Third Sunday of every other month, 7:00 PM Eastern, by video conference. Guests are welcome — ask for an invitation. |
| Size | Nine directors. Four are also professional musicians who perform with the orchestra. |
| Fiscal year | January 1 through December 31. |
| Bylaws | Last amended August 19, 2018. |
| Associate Board | Three members. Non-voting, lower commitment — the way most people start. |
| Artistic Advisory Committee | Ten members advising on programming and artistic direction. |
Join the next movement
There’s a seat with your name on it.
You don’t need a music degree. You need judgment, a few hours a month, and a reason to care whether this community keeps its orchestra. Tell us what you’d bring and we’ll talk.
Not ready for a full seat? The Associate Board is the on-ramp — same room, lighter commitment, no vote. Plenty of directors started there.
