Support the Soundtrack of Summer: Sponsor a Concert at Heifetz 2025!
June 26 - August 2
Each summer, the Heifetz International Music Institute transforms the Shenandoah Valley into a hub of musical brilliance. Our Festival of Concerts brings together world-class faculty, rising-star performers, and passionate audiences for a celebration of music, artistry, and community.
With over 60 public performances in venues across Staunton and the surrounding region, the Heifetz Festival of Concerts is one of the most vibrant and visible expressions of our mission—and you can play a vital role in making it happen.
Why Sponsor a Concert?
Concert sponsorships are a powerful way to support the next generation of musical talent while making your mark on a treasured community tradition. Whether you’re an individual, business, or organization, sponsoring a concert is a meaningful way to:
✅ Celebrate a loved one or honor a memory with a dedicated performance
✅ Promote your brand to an engaged, culturally-minded audience
✅ Show your support for the arts and arts education in our region
✅ Connect personally with the students and artists whose lives your gift supports
What You’ll Receive as a Concert Sponsor:
Every sponsor receives exclusive benefits, including:
-
Recognition in our concert program, website, email newsletters, and onstage from our Artistic Leadership
-
Meet & greet opportunities with Heifetz artists and students
-
Sponsor spotlight across our social media channels and livestream audience (which reaches thousands around the world!)
You can even choose a concert that aligns with your interests—whether that’s a high-energy Stars of Tomorrow student showcase, a stirring Sunday Matinee, or one of our intimate chamber performances in unique local venues.
Your concert sponsorship goes directly toward supporting the full Heifetz summer experience: performance and communication training, scholarships for deserving students, and outreach performances that bring music to schools, hospitals, and communities across the Shenandoah Valley.
Your support helps make the music happen.
