2025-2026 Recital Season Sponsorship Opportunities

Our students are hard at work preparing for our 2025-2026 recital season!  We invite you to join fellow business leaders as a sponsor of Community Music School’s 2025-2026 student performances.

Over the course of our 2024-2025 recital season, 288+ CMS students, ages 5 to 71+, proudly presented their musical performances to a diverse and engaged audience of over 1,200 friends, family, and supporters in our beautiful Dorothy H. Baker Recital Hall.  Performing in front of a live audience is an important part of each CMS student’s growth and development.  Thanks to you and our other generous donors, all CMS recitals are free and open to the public; there is also no fee for students who perform.  

CMS is a nonprofit, 501(c) (3) organization, and corporate sponsors like you help us provide all students with access to the life-long benefits of quality music education, regardless of their background, age, ability, or financial circumstances.   In 2025-2026, we are funding over $86,000 in financial aid to 50% of our students under age 18.  Your sponsorship will directly support these students.

Please consider showcasing your organization’s support for the arts, music, and education with a 2025-2026 Recital Season Sponsorship.  Program advertisements are also available.  All Recital Season Sponsors and Supporting Sponsors will be recognized at all six student recitals and across all CMS communication channels over the course of the season (October 2025 – June 2026) and will receive an exclusive invitation to our Gala Recital & Reception on May 17, 2026.

We encourage you to review the sponsorship and advertising opportunities below. Please reply via mail, email, or online form with the best option(s) for your organization.

If you have any questions, please contact Lisa Kulp, Assistant Director, 610-435-7725 x402, or lisa@cmslv.org. 

On behalf of CMS students, teachers, staff, and our Board of Directors, we thank you for sponsoring and supporting music education!
