Orchestra Board and Administration
Help Shape the Future of Music in Montgomery County
Symphony of the Potomac, Inc. is a non-profit corporation chartered in the State of Maryland. We have openings on the Board of Directors for members of the community. The Board makes decisions on governance, budgeting, operations and fundraising, thus guiding the future direction of the orchestra. Board members attend monthly meetings in the evenings via Zoom.
An ideal candidate will have a love for music, an interest in bettering our community, and experience with nonprofit organizations. Interested or curious? Please email info@symphonypotomac.org.
