We are delighted to introduce Kami Hettwer, who joins us as our new Executive Director. With a deep passion for music and over two decades of experience in both administrative roles and educational settings, Kami brings a wealth of expertise to our organization.
On January 12th, we were able to meet with some of our donors at the home of WIlly and Karen Kohne. Mingling over drinks and hors d’oeuvres, we were able to hear first hand what makes SPO special to our community.
On December 2 & 3, Salem Philharmonia invited children of all ages to a special “Meet the Orchestra” event.
In December, 2023, Artistic Director, Jonathan DeBruyn had the chance to catch up with All-Classical Radio as part of their special program, “Where Are They Now?”
Our December donor match succeeded in bringing in nearly $13,000! THANK YOU!
