The Walden Chamber Music Society is a local 501(c)3, we're in our 23rd season here in the Upper Arkansas Valley, and our mission is to present classical chamber music concerts performed by world-class musicians at an affordable price. We are currently fundraising for next season, and our goal is $16,000. This campaign will culminate in a concert recital at a private residence in Buena Vista on June 28, 2026, performed by Philipp Lynov, a finalist of the 2025 Cliburn International Piano Competition.

The performance will be followed by a light hors d'oeuvres reception.
Between now and early June, I am approaching individuals and businesses about sponsoring at the Gold ($2,000+), Silver ($1,000-$1,999) or Bronze ($500-$999) levels. Sponsors will receive two tickets to the concert, plus: -- prominent recognition at the entrance to the venue, -- printed recognition on the concert program, -- recognition on our website and any social media posts about the event, and -- printed recognition in next season's program. Gold level sponsors will also receive verbal acknowledgement from the stage before the concert. The concert this June is capped at an audience of 60, but our four concerts next season we will be at a public venue in Salida so the exposure opportunity will be much greater - a potential 880 views from November 2026 - May 2027.
