Arts Narrogin Gift Fund Boosts Perth Symphony Orchestra’s Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert with $20,000 Donation
Arts Narrogin, through its Gift Fund, is proud to announce its generous contribution of $20,000 to the Perth Symphony Orchestra’s GoFundMe fundraising campaign for the Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert, scheduled to captivate audiences on November 25, 2023. This significant contribution underscores Arts Narrogin’s commitment to enriching the cultural landscape of Narrogin and fostering a vibrant and thriving arts community.
The Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert is poised to be an unforgettable event, uniting the Perth Symphony Orchestra and the local community in a celebration of music and culture. The Green Shoots Programme is a year-long series of coaching and music mentoring from Perth Symphony for Narrogin area community musicians.
Set against the picturesque backdrop of a custom built Hay Bale Arena, this unique concert promises an immersive experience like no other. With a diverse repertoire and world-class musicians on stage alongside local musicians, this concert will undoubtedly be a memorable experience for all attendees. Marking the culmination of the year-long inaugural Green Shoots project, Perth Symphony Orchestra aims for the concert to inspire and bring joy to the heart of the Narrogin community.
The generous $20,000 donation from the Arts Narrogin Gift Fund will not only bolster the success of the Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert but also reflects Arts Narrogin’s strong sense of community and support for local talent and creativity. The funds will be utilised for various aspects of the concert, most crucially the staging and venue preparations.
Sally Rogers, member of the Arts Narrogin Gift Fund committee, expressed her enthusiasm for the upcoming concert and the organisation’s role in supporting it, stating, “We are thrilled to support the Perth Symphony Orchestra’s Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert. This event embodies the spirit of our community and showcases the incredible talent we have here in Narrogin. We believe that this concert will not only be a cultural highlight but will also have a positive impact on the lives of our residents.”
The Perth Symphony Orchestra’s GoFundMe campaign for the Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert aims to raise funds to cover increased staging and production costs. Due to the unprecedented popularity of the Green Shoots program and number of community participants, the concert is now requiring a stage and arena double the size of the original plans. The generous contribution from the Arts Narrogin Gift Fund will undoubtedly act as a catalyst, encouraging others to contribute to this extraordinary musical endeavour.
“We are deeply grateful to the Arts Narrogin Gift Fund for their substantial donation,” said Marie-Claire Donnelly, Community Engagement Manager of the Perth Symphony Orchestra. “Their support reinforces the importance of arts and culture in regional communities like Narrogin. Together, we can create an unforgettable musical experience and bring the joy of music to people’s lives.”
The Green Shoots Narrogin Hay Bales Concert promises to be a significant cultural highlight for the Wheatbelt region, showcasing local talent from the surrounding districts on stage playing alongside world class musicians from Perth Symphony Orchestra. Music lovers, residents, and visitors are encouraged to attend this unique event on November 25th 2023, to enjoy an evening of exceptional music and stunning scenery.
