Anchorage Symphony Orchestra

Sponsor a Chair

Sponsor-a-Chair

There would be no Anchorage Symphony Orchestra if we did not have wonderful and talented musicians sitting on stage every performance. Each one has dedicated their lives to providing great music for every life and we want to recognize their commitment and achievements.

By sponsoring an ASO musician, you help offset the ASO Musicians

costs associated with maintaining a symphony orchestra while recognizing the talents of the musicians on stage. Each year groups or individuals come together to sponsor ASO musicians and show appreciation for their contribution to the art.

Do you know an ASO musician, have a favorite instrument, or just want to show support to your local orchestra?

The ASO is still seeking sponsors for both Principal and Non-Principal Chairs.

Assistant Conductor - $3,000

Full Sponsorship of Principal Chair - $2,000

Full Sponsorship of Non-Principal Chair - $1,000

(Half Sponsorships of Principal and Non-Principal Chairs are available at $1,000 & $500 respectively)
