Volunteers for Symphony


Volunteers for Symphony funds and supports nine nationally recognized music education programs that reach more than 30,000 youths each year.

VfS members contribute time, talent, and resources to strengthen the music education program of The Quad City Symphony Orchestra Association.  Fund-raisers, generously supported by the community, include Derby Day Party (May), Second Fiddle Sale (June), and the ongoing sale of our second cookbook, Return Engagement.  Standing Ovations, the first cookbook, is no longer in print.

Membership in Volunteers for Symphony is available to everyone.  Three general meetings are held yearly, in addition to a variety of other social and fundraising events. Volunteers for Symphony was created in 1996 by the merger of the Junior Board of the Quad City Symphony Orchestra (founded in 1936) and the Guild of the Quad City Symphony Orchestra (founded in 1957).  For more information, please contact the Symphony office or complete the online membership application form found in the VfS information link..
