Symphonic Music for All
Thank You
For ten seasons, the Civic Orchestra of Jacksonville has united musicians, audiences, and community through the shared experience of live music.
What began as a vision for accessible, high‑quality orchestral performance has grown into a vibrant organization supported by dedicated musicians, volunteers, sponsors, donors, audience members, and community partners.
As we celebrate ten seasons, we are grateful to everyone who has helped make the Civic Orchestra of Jacksonville a welcoming home for music.
Thank you for being part of the Civic Orchestra of Jacksonville family.
