Concert Repertoire Sponsorship
You can support WSW and be recognized in the program as the sponsor of a piece in our concert programs. Perhaps someone you know has a solo in the piece, or you are a fan of a section that is featured, or the piece is a favorite of yours. Whatever your reason for sponsorship, your donation will help offset the cost of presenting the music. We will be offering these sponsorships for each concert this season, providing opportunities to give throughout the year.
Watch this space for updates on repertoire sponsorships.
