Ways to Give

Annual Fund gifts provide essential support for Wintergreen Music’s performances, Festival Artists, education programs, and community partnerships. These contributions help cover the full cost of our work, giving us the flexibility to respond to opportunities, plan thoughtfully, and build a strong future for music in our region.

A gift designated in support of the LEAD Cooperative will be used to help sustain tuition-free training and professional development for students on the cusp of their professional careers. Contributions help provide meaningful learning experiences and reduce financial barriers to participation.

Contact Corinne Horvath, Executive Director (chorvath@wintergreenmusic.org) to discuss underwriting a program (instrumental, voice, conducting, etc.), and special fund support.

Celebrate the music and musicians you love by sponsoring a concert, educational program, or special event. Or, sponsor a concert in honor/memory of a loved one. Concert sponsorships provide essential support while recognizing your generosity in our Festival materials.
