To offset rising costs and assure that concert tickets will always remain free, a new donor category, Conductor’s Circle, has been established, that of pledging $1,000 for three years by supporters. This first year the below community citizens have stepped forward to help insure the future of the Athens Symphony, and we are very grateful to each of them for setting this example, with the hope that others will follow.
