Outreach Violin Program
The Outreach Violin program is an award winning outreach program. We believe that all people should have the opportunity to experience music. Our purpose is to reach out in the community to those children who might not otherwise have such an opportunity and provide them with free music lessons from professional music teachers. The video below shows our program in action.
Currently the program is available at the Northwest Community Center and the Guadeloupe School. Student receive a violin to use to learn and practice on. Lessons are taught once a week on several days. Generally they perform two concerts per year.

School Docent Program
Last year, through the Fifth-Grade Docent Concerts, over 23,000 fifth graders in Utah attended concerts at Abravanel Hall. Approximately one hundred docents visit the classrooms before the concerts helping to introduce the students to the wonderful world of classical music through specially designed presentation materials.

Gift Shop
Currently the Guild's financial contributions to the Symphony come primarily from the Symphony Ball, the Symphony Gift Shop and other fundraisers.
