Outreach | Improving the Quality of Life in Our Community
As an integral part of our mission, the Ridgefield Symphony Orchestra provides innovative education and outreach programs that touch the lives of many in our community. The RSO also partners with local business and other non-profits to help fulfill that mission.
Senior Outreach takes pieces of the RSO and puts them out in the community where people live and gather-in senior centers and health facilities, and engages, inspires, and brings joy to those who participate with interactive performances and discussions. Exposure to live music can improve health, happiness, and a sense of well-being.
