Like most other cultural organizations, ticket sales only cover a fraction of our costs. We are able to bring these outstanding groups to our small hall only because of the generosity of our subscribers and friends. We urge you to consider one of the contribution options shown below.

Be a Friend of the Chamber Music Circle
Make a tax-deductible contribution. The names of all Sponsors ($1000 or more), Benefactors ($250 to $999), Patrons ($100 to $249) and Friends ($25 to $99) will be listed in the programs (unless you say otherwise.) In appreciation, Sponsors, Benefactors and Patrons will receive a pack of our exclusive notecards. Sponsors and Benefactors will also receive a CD by one of our artists.

Sponsor a Concert
Concert sponsorship has been a valuable source of support from our most generous friends. A contribution of $2500 or more will allow you to be recognized as the exclusive sponsor of a concert of your choosing from among those still available. A contribution of $1000 or more will give you recognition as a co-sponsor of a concert of our choosing.

Leave a Legacy
An endowment fund with the Community Foundation of Dutchess County supports our programs. A gift or bequest to that fund will provide continuing income to the Chamber Music Circle. A charitable remainder annuity or trust can also be established. For further information, contact either the Circle or the Foundation.

For further information, call William Stevens at 845-297-9243.
