The Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra serves and partners within the community in many and unique ways. We perform free concerts, provide speakers for meetings, serve as a resource for our local school music teachers, provide music from small ensembles and donate thousands of dollars worth of free concert tickets to support other nonprofit, cultural organizations and educational institutions within our community. The Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra also keeps busy with much more than our season. In fact, we perform more frequently for community events than season concerts. PARTNERSHIPS
