Your Support Is Vital To…

Arts in Education Programs

Providing local students with free access to masterclasses, performances, and hands-on learning from professional artists. These programs open doors for students to explore their creativity, develop new skills, and experience the power of the arts, all without any cost. By making these opportunities available, your donation helps shape the next generation of artists and creative thinkers.

Arts Accessible to Everyone

We are committed to making the arts accessible to all, regardless of financial background. With your donation, we can continue offering affordable and free programs that allow families, children, and individuals in Garrett County to experience the transformative power of live performance.

The Stage WEST Mission

Most importantly, your donation enables us to sustain and grow our mission. It helps us continue bringing exceptional performers to Garrett County. Ticket sales alone do not cover all of our operating expenses and costs associated with housing our out-of-town performers. Every dollar you give directly impacts our ability to offer high-quality arts programs and experiences that leave a lasting impression on those who participate.

When you donate to Stage WEST Arts Collective, you’re not just supporting the arts—you’re investing in the future of our community. Together, we can ensure that Garrett County remains a place where creativity thrives and the arts continue to inspire and enrich lives. Please consider making a donation today and help us keep the arts alive for generations to come.

The Paul Weiler Concertmaster’s Society

The Paul Weiler Concertmaster’s Society is a group of dedicated supporters who provide essential financial contributions to enable Stage WEST Arts Collective to bring world-class symphonic music to Garrett County. Through their generosity, members of the society help bring prestigious symphony orchestras, such as the Maryland Symphony Orchestra (MSO) and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (BSO), to perform in our community.

The Society is named in honor of Paul Weiler, a passionate advocate for the arts in Garrett County. Members of the Paul Weiler Concertmaster’s Society play a pivotal role in ensuring that Garrett County has access to exceptional orchestral performances, enriching the cultural landscape and providing residents with a unique opportunity to experience world-class music.

By joining this society, donors contribute to the continued success of our symphonic music programming and without that support this would not be a reality.  Please consider joining  the Concertmaster’s Society today!
