Building the Future of the DSO

A new $7.5 million fundraising initiative that will support our ongoing pursuit of innovation and artistic excellence is being spearheaded by members of the our Executive Board to recognize the exceptional leadership of Ross Perot President & CEO Kim Noltemy and provide vital support needed to offset the decline in ticket sales and other revenues caused by COVID-19.
