When a community rallies together, amazing things happen. We’ve known this to be true from our first season in 2016, where hundreds of community members banded together to grow Emerald City Music from an ambitious idea into a national leader in classical music experiences. By supporting Emerald City Music, you ensure equitable access to classical music for future listeners throughout the Northwest.
You can support this movement by making a one-time or monthly contribution. Every donation supports this ambitious new vision, and the average contribution is just $100. Emerald City Music is a 501(c)3 nonprofit and all donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Emerald City Music is a 501(c)3 charity. 100% of your donation is tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. Donations directly support the creation of classical music performances and new works from our South Lake Union Seattle basecamp, 415 Westlake.

We recognize each and every gift with our heartfelt thanks and a letter for tax records. Donations of $500 and more are recognized in printed materials. Donations of $1,000 and more are recognized in our season brochure. Donations of $2,500 and more have opportunities for being named a sponsor of a performance.
Every donation supports making more music! Our biggest expenses as an organization are artists, which means that your funds significantly support creating more art. Approximately 15% of our annual budget affords the staff that makes the magic happen year-round.
When you give online, a confirmation email is automatically sent to your inbox. Keep this for your records! We also send hardcopy letters within four weeks of your gift, and in January to summarize your total year of giving!
