OUR DONORS

A huge thank you to our family of supporters.

 
Our donor categories are named after famous 18th century patrons of music, including those who supported Haydn, Beethoven and Mozart. Without them, we may not have the many works we cherish and enjoy performing for you today! We are incredibly grateful to all of you, the modern day patrons, in every different category, who support AHE today. We could not do what we do without you. Thank you!
— Skye McIntosh, Artistic Director
