Pittsburgh Symphony benefits Gateway Foundation

The Gateway Foundation is proud to announce its new Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra (PSO) Community Partnership. This exceptional pairing links our Foundation with one of Pittsburgh's premier performing arts organizations, and opens the door to helping our Foundation raise funds that will ultimately benefit the students in the Gateway school system. Through several Gateway Foundation initiatives, including the very successful mini-grant program, teachers and students are able to receive funding for many worthwhile educational projects that help expand our students' minds and abilities.

On Thursday, June 26, 2008 at 8 p.m., the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra will host its 5th Annual Community Partners Concert. This year, the PSO will perform, under the direction of Associate Conductor, Lawrence Loh a mini concert featuring the 2008 Sphinx Competition winner, violinist extraodrinare, Danielle Belen Nesmith. The second half of this exciting evening will feature Grammy Award winning entertainer, Issac Hayes, who will perform with the PSO. To purchase tickets on behalf of The Gateway Foundation, call the Heinz Hall box office at 1-800-742-8560 or order tickets online at www.pittsburghsymphony.org. When making your ticket purchase, please indicate you would like the proceeds to benefit The Gateway Foundation partner #6654
