Volunteer with the Emporia Symphony League

The mission of the Emporia Symphony League is to assist and support the Emporia Symphony Orchestra musicians, its goals, and assure adequate financial funding for the continued presence of the symphony.

League members are vital volunteers for the success of the orchestra. They coordinate the orchestra’s fundraising and marketing efforts, outreach projects and support the orchestra’s musicians’ needs. Currently our outreach projects include a children’s concert and the ESU string camp.

“We are a group of like-minded individuals who support the arts in Emporia.”

Irene Diaz Gill, league member
