      Since 2011 the Salish Sea Early Music Festival has provided world class period instrument performances with musicians from Europe and all around the Puget Sound, the United States and Canada. Our performers are deeply committed, passionate explorers of musical landscapes and expressive realms of great variety, among the finest in their field around the globe, and we are excited that you share our enthusiasm for this chamber music both familiar and rarely if ever heard on period instruments.

      As we are committed to providing an opportunity for everyone to benefit from out efforts, entrance at the door is by suggested donation, a free will offering, and the concerts are open to all regardless of contribution. These concert entrance donations provide the majority our funding, but it is not sufficient. Our expenses are extremely low relative to other arts organizations, in part as we have no administrative costs whatsoever. Your additional donations provide us with the opportunity to compensate our wonderful artists for their efforts and time away from intensely busy performance schedules, and to help offset the cost of their travel. All professionals whose livelihood depends on concerts around the country and overseas, during the pandemic our artists lost the great majority of their work along with their remaining concerts with us. Thanks to your generosity we were able to provide them with a special pandemic relief bonus.

      Your additional donation gives us the final lift that enables this endeavor. Thank you from all of our performers and audience members for assisting us in offering these unique programs to the community. We look forward to seeing you at future concerts!
