Mercury Chamber Orchestra

We are thrilled to congratulate the Edison Arts Foundation on achieving an incredible milestone in their journey to complete the new Arts Center! The recent beam signing marks an exciting step toward the realization of this vibrant hub for creativity, learning, and connection—a place that will enrich our community for generations to come. Mercury is honored to partner with Edison Arts Foundation in bringing music to underserved areas and transforming art deserts into thriving cultural landscapes. Together, we are committed to empowering young musicians and sharing the transformative power of the arts with our local community. As the Arts Center takes shape, we look forward to many more years of collaboration, inspiring creativity, and creating opportunities for future generations.

At Mercury, our work is not just about concerts—it’s about connection. It's about creating a place where art transcends boundaries and where everyone feels welcome. We’ve seen it firsthand this year: Children inspired to pick up their first instrument, families coming together for their first orchestral performance, and individuals with invisible disabilities experiencing the joy of live performance from the comfort and safety of their homes. But this is only possible because of you. Your support allows us to dream bigger, reach further, and bring music to people who may never have had the chance to experience it. As we close this year, we invite you to continue being part of this journey. With a gift today, you’re not just supporting concerts—you’re investing in a vibrant, connected community, where music has no barriers. Thank you for standing with us and for sharing in our vision of a world connected by music. Together, we’ll continue to inspire, uplift, and connect—one note at a time.

??Whether you’re lighting the menorah, gathering around the Christmas tree, or preparing for the Kwanzaa kinara, we hope your holidays are filled with warmth, music, and cherished memories. This year, we’ve been deeply moved by the outstanding support of our incredible community. Your kindness and belief in our mission has allowed us to make music accessible to everyone, inspire young minds, and bring our community closer together. From all of us at Mercury, thank you for being part of our musical family. Wishing you and your loved ones peace, happiness, and harmony, this holiday season and in the year to come. Song: Panis Angelicus Performed by Nicole Heaston & Mercury Chamber Orchestra

Thank you to everyone who attended our last Neighborhood concert of 2024! As we reflect on this past year, we are deeply grateful for the incredible community of supporters who make Mercury Chamber Orchestra’s work possible. Because of you, we’ve brought the joy of music to audiences of all ages and backgrounds, creating meaningful connections through world-class performances and educational programs. Thanks to your generosity, we’ve been able to: - Keep concerts accessible so everyone can experience the power of live music. - Visit local schools with inspiring, hands-on music residencies, opening young minds to creativity and self-expression. - Share the gift of music with thousands of students and families, fostering a love of the arts that lasts a lifetime. But we have so much more to do, and we can’t do it without you. This holiday season, we invite you to make an end-of-year gift and continue transforming lives through the arts. Your support, in any amount, means the world to us—and to the communities we serve. From all of us here at Mercury, thank you for helping us do what we do.
