For more than 70 years, the Wyoming Symphony Orchestra has been entertaining audiences from venues large and small - from concert halls to classrooms across Wyoming. None of this would be possible without the unprecedented support from people like you.
The gifts we receive from individuals, corporate sponsors and foundation grants give us the resources to continue our work for the people of Wyoming - and for that we thank you.

ADOPT A MUSICIAN
The Wyoming Symphony Orchestra has one of the finest orchestra in the region with almost 70 musicians who come to Casper to perform. This incredible group of talented artists is carefully selected through an audition process. Their time is not donated - and we feed and house those that travel to Casper.
What better way to participate in our 2019-2020 season than to ensure that every musician feels the love from our patrons this season. Adoption includes your name or company name in the season program.
Music Director Christopher Dragon: $2,500
Concert Master Becky Mothersbaugh: $500
Principal Musician: $250
Orchestra Musician: $100
