ways to give

The New World Symphony depends on you

Ticket sales provide only 14% of the funds needed to present more than 60 concerts to the community and train our 87 fellows each season.  We rely on you, and generous donors from around the country, to provide almost half of the funds needed to keep NWS going.

Your gift makes it happen

Beyond concerts, your gift supports great music for generations to come.

Whether you give as an individual or through a foundation or corporation, your support is crucial.  Your gift helps launch the careers of talented musicians from around the world and supports the magical performances they bring to South Florida and beyond—and there are so many ways to give.

  • Invitations to select rehearsals and private luncheons
  • Special receptions with MTT and NWS fellows
  • Priority seating at Adrienne Arsht Center concerts
  • The opportunity to sponsor an NWS fellow or concert

Corporate Support
When your company gives to the New World Symphony, you not only support the arts, but you also get an unbeatable marketing opportunity in return.  So how does a New World Symphony sponsorship benefit your business?  For starters, it allows you to:

  • Introduce your company to a highly sophisticated target audience
  • Network with influential community leaders
  • Entertain clients and employees
  • Show your corporate citizenship
  • Meet guest artists and NWS fellows
  • Enjoy a young, energetic world-class symphony orchestra led by Michael Tilson Thomas

For more information on sponsor benefits, call Nancy Davis at 305-673-3330 ext. 258 or send an email to nancy.davis@nws.edu.

Foundation Support
Support from the foundation community is crucial to the programs and activities of the New World Symphony.  Foundation grants make possible our Kids in the Concert Halls series, community engagement presentations in Miami-Dade schools, and Internet2 long-distance learning, among other programs.  Gifts may support NWS operating expenses or may be designated for particular programs, projects, or funds.  Please call David Sepulveda at 305-673-3330 ext. 268 or send an email to david.sepulveda@nws.edu for further information.

Estate and Gift Planning
Our most devoted benefactors help guarantee the future of the New World Symphony through bequests, trusts, charitable gift annuities, and other planned gifts.  Estate planning may provide lifetime income, convert low-yielding assets into a higher income stream, reduce or eliminate taxes on capital gains, generate a substantial federal income tax deduction, and eliminate or reduce federal estate taxes.  Please contact Paul Woehrle at 305-673-3330 ext. 263 to learn more.

Tribute Gifts
Honor your loved ones and support NWS by making a tribute gift.  Your donation may commemorate special events such as birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries.  Tribute gifts are also a meaningful expression of condolence and serve as an appropriate memorial for someone who has passed away.  You and the individual or family that you designate will receive acknowledgment of the gift, which is a tax-deductible contribution.  Call the Development Department at 305-673-3330 to discuss your tribute gift.

Friends Membership Program
Join Friends and be a part of a vibrant group of more than 800 music lovers in South Florida and New York City who support New World Symphony. Friends is designed to showcase world-class musicians, up close and personal, performing classical favorites and avant-garde fusions of electronic, hip-hop, jazz and rock.

Friends of the New World Symphony is a special membership group.  With a contribution of $250 or more, members are invited to exclusive events at Miami and New York hot spots, featuring innovative, no-holds-barred performances by NWS fellows. Because Friends of New World is a membership group and the value of goods and services exceeds $250, there is not a tax deduction at the $250 level. ($500 gift = $250 deduction $1,000 gift= $750 deduction, $2,500 gift = $2,250 deduction.) For more information on membership rates and benefits click here or call Stacey Glassman at 305-673-3330 ext. 230 or send an email to stacey.glassman@nws.edu.
