We believe that the transformative power of music is amplified when it reflects the rich tapestry of our community.
Our orchestra comprises volunteer musicians of varied ages, backgrounds, and professions, united by a shared passion for music and community service. Through free concerts, educational initiatives like the Art in Music program, and collaborations with local organizations, we strive to make classical music accessible and relevant to all.
We are dedicated to:
- Representation: Ensuring our membership, leadership, and programming reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.
- Accessibility: Breaking down barriers to participation by offering free performances and engaging with underserved populations.
- Education: Providing opportunities for young and emerging artists from diverse backgrounds to learn, perform, and thrive.
By embracing these principles, the ACSO aims to create a welcoming space where every individual feels seen, heard, and valued. Together, we harmonize our differences to enrich the cultural fabric of Atlanta.
