Support The Gainesville Civic Chorus

Thank you for visiting our Support page

All Gainesville Master Chorale performances are free to the public so that everyone can enjoy the music. However, we do incur significant expenses for the purchase of musical scores, advertising, salaries for our conductor and rehearsal accompanists, and the hiring of instrumentalists for our performances.

The minimal cost for a concert is $8,000, and costs associated with a large orchestra and soloists can easily run to more than $12,000.

To cover these costs, the GMC is supported by dues from our members, arts grants, advertisements placed in our concert brochures, and donations from community members and friends of the arts such as yourself. Donations of any size are gratefully accepted either in person, by mail, or through several other avenues.

As a 501(c)(3) organization, your donation also may be eligible for a federal income tax donation.

Please see the information below for details on the various donation options available. And from the entire membership, thank you for your continued support of the Gainesville Master Chorale.
