For the Love of Music

Orchestra Iowa is proud to announce its For the Love of Music campaign.

This comprehensive fundraising campaign will provide vital funding to support world-class performances, community programs, and educational opportunities for generations to come.


Orchestra Iowa is deeply committed to making its programming possible and accessible for everyone. The cost of bringing an orchestra to the stage and to the community is high – nearly three times what we earn in ticket sales. This is why donor generosity is so important!


“Our campaign is more than a financial endeavor; it’s a commitment to sustaining and enhancing the cultural heartbeat of our community. By supporting this campaign, you invest in the artistry, education, and outreach that make Orchestra Iowa unique. Your contribution will empower us to plan with confidence and ambition, ensuring a secure and vibrant future for the organization.”

- Eric Marshall, CEO
