Donor Events

Due to the postponement of the NJSO’s concerts through May 10, the NJSO open rehearsals scheduled for March 25 and May 1 at NJPAC have been canceled. The NJSO will continue to monitor updates from the CDC and the New Jersey Department of Health about COVID-19 and it will resume concerts and community events once we are confident a safe environment can be shared by everyone. Please visit njsymphony.org for special announcements and concert updates.

During this time of uncertainty surrounding the coronavirus, the unexpected financial challenges of postponed NJSO concerts and the decline in charitable contributions have come into focus. Please consider making a donation to support the NJSO during this time.
