Your Support Matters

Sponsorships

A Musician Chair Sponsorship is a direct way for you to connect your passion and your donation to a specific person in the North State Symphony. Chair Sponsors sometimes choose an instrument they particularly love, a player they know, or a chair recommended by North State Symphony staff. Student players, professional players, principal players, as well as guest artists and our guest conductors can all be selected for sponsorship if available.

For more information about sponsoring a musician’s chair, please contact Mahina Gannet at (530) 898-5917 or megannet@csuchico.edu.
