Invest in the Arts
Music and the arts are powerful catalysts for the quality of life, culture, and economy within local communities. The Long Beach Symphony is proud of its role, using music to help realize the full potential of our young citizens, enriching the lives of individuals of all ages and contributing to the well-being of our community.
The Symphony's goal is to continue the long tradition started in 1934, a tradition of making music for the city and neighboring communities, of bringing people together to be entertained, stimulated and even challenged by the music.
