Leadership Shift Recent executive leadership change with John Thiessen appointed as Executive Director in January 2026 presents an opportunity to engage at the strategic level for partnerships, fundraising initiatives, and long term collaboration with concert programming and educational outreach.

Fiscal Scale Revenue is in the mid five-figure to mid six-figure range ($10M-$25M), indicating a stable operating budget that can support expanded initiatives such as larger outreach programs, touring collaborations, or premium content production with technology partners.

Period Practice Focus on original or reproduced period instruments and historic performance practices positions opportunities for specialized tech solutions, instrument care, restoration partnerships, and educational content services tailored to historically informed performances.

Grants Backing Recognition via National Endowment for the Arts grants signals openness to grant-funded initiatives; potential for co-funding, grant-writing support, and partnerships to expand education programs and audience development projects.
