Sustaining an Ideal
Marlboro Music is more than a festival or a school; it is a living community and a set of values. When you support Marlboro, you are not only investing in the highest levels of international excellence but also affirming that great music, pursued with integrity, has the power to inspire and uplift us all.
Marlboro continues to be made possible through the generosity of our artistic directors and their colleagues as well as by a community of donors whose support makes the dream of attending Marlboro come true for new generations of wonderfully talented emerging musicians. Because ticket sales cover only a small fraction of our annual costs to support our artists and care for our campus, philanthropy is the essential force that allows this idealistic experiment to flourish.
Whether you contribute to our Annual Fund or create a lasting legacy through Planned Giving, together we can ensure that Marlboro continues to serve music—and the world—with integrity and generosity of spirit. We invite you to explore the opportunities below and to contact us to discuss your gift.

Your gift to the Annual Fund provides the vital, immediate support needed to sustain our musical program and residential community each summer.
Planned Giving
By including Marlboro Music in your long-term plans, you ensure that our values—and the music we serve—endure for generations to come. The Serkin Legacy Society recognizes those who have made a lasting commitment to Marlboro’s future through bequests, gift annuities, or other planned gifts.
Marlboro at 75
The 75th Anniversary Campaign is a commitment to Marlboro’s future—to sustain our devotion to music, to care for the place that makes our work possible, and to nurture and build the community that gives it meaning.
Creative Giving
In addition to legacy commitments, there are many ways to support Marlboro. These and other creative giving opportunities ensure that Marlboro will inspire and nurture emerging artists for generations to come.
