Modern Marimba is sustained by a community of people and businesses who believe that music should be accessible, equitable, and rooted in solidarity. Our Season Sponsors make it possible for us to:

• Pay professional musicians and teaching artists fair wages
• Commission new works from diverse voices
• Offer free and accessible performances to the public
• Create educational programs that center equity and representation

Your partnership is more than financial support—it’s a commitment to building a cultural ecosystem where music uplifts, connects, and transforms.

We are deeply grateful to the Visionary Partners, Community Champions, Collective Allies, Musical Advocates, Friends of Modern Marimba, and Solidarity Circle members who have joined us in this work. Together, we are reimagining the role of marimba and percussion in today’s world and creating spaces where everyone belongs.
