For more than 30 years, Savannah Music Festival has brought world-class performances, transformative education, and unforgettable experiences to our beloved city.
Thanks to you, the 2025 festival was a smashing success:
60+ performances presented
600+ free student tickets distributed
Record ticket sales achieved
Together, we’ve filled historic venues with music that inspires and unites.
Recently, after decades of continuous support, the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) unexpectedly rescinded its grant to Savannah Music Festival — a grant that had already been earmarked to underwrite three artists during the 2025 festival.
This loss follows a trend of changing funding priorities this season, which has left a sudden and significant gap in our funding.
Hitting our 2024-2025 season fundraising goal not only allows SMF to maintain the caliber of programming you've come to expect but also impacts the number of artists we can bring to our stages and the number of students and community members that our free education and community outreach initiatives can serve.
If you’ve already given this season and can make an additional gift, thank you. If you haven’t yet had a chance, please consider joining our incredible community of supporters today.
With your generosity, we can write the next chapter of music, education, and joy in Savannah.
