The Symphony League of Canton is a membership-based association that serves as a satelite organization to the Canton Symphony Orchestra. It exists to provide financial and volunteer support for the CSO and to foster appreciation for finer music by developing, promoting, and supporting its programs and activities, particularly its educational and youth-oriented programs.
The Symphony League of Canton meets on a monthly basis to coordinate fundraisers, event volunteering needs, and brainstorm ways to support the Canton Symphony Orchestra in coordination with its staff.

Membership Categories
After the first Symphony League of Canton meeting, it was decided that there would be two forms of membership: Active and Sustaining. Any member of the Symphony league will be listed in the season program book separately from the annual fund.
Active Memberships
Active Members are expected to attend most scheduled meetings, volunteer at a reasonable number of events (3/5 MasterWorks, 2/3 Pops), and help with gathering raffle materials. They receive two tickets to every event they sign up to volunteer and receive a 30% discount to all other events (except the Divergent Sounds Series.)
- Running the raffle basket table for concerts
- Helping gather materials for raffle baskets and other fundraising items
- Plan upcoming fundraisers
- Maintain snack table for musicians
Active Individual: $30 annual dues
Those who desire to be active in supporting the CSO.
Active Household: $50 annual dues
Available to married couples and domestic partners.
Sustaining Memberships
Sustaining Members do not need to attend meetings but want to publicly be acknowledged as supporters focused on providing services to the orchestra musicians. They would be expected to attend at least 2 meetings per year and volunteer at at least 2 events, but these are not requirements. They receive two tickets to every event they sign up to volunteer and receive a 30% discount to all other events (except the Divergent Sounds Series.)
Sustaining Individual: $45 annual dues
A higher due rate for more of an advisory, less active role in The League.
Sustaining Household: $65 annual dues.
Available to married couples and domestic partners.
Student Membership: $20 annual dues
Student Memberships are intended for anyone under the age of 18 or those currently enrolled in any college, university, trade program, or certification course. Student’s expectations are purely based on an individual basis with the Executive Committee. We will make it work for you!
