What Cedar Valley Chamber Music Inc does
Mission
The primary exempt purpose of Cedar Valley Chamber Music (CVCM) is educational. CVCM uses the portability of small ensembles to perform chamber music in venues around the Cedar Valley community, in order to increase arts education in the Cedar Valley. CVCM showcases local and regional musicians performing diverse chamber music repertoire in intimate settings. CVCM is also dedicated to developing new audiences through education and community outreach.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
The annual Cedar Valley Chamber Music Festival Season hosts the annual Cedar Valley Chamber Music Festival in July. As an educational organization, CVCM engages the community through a one-week summer music festival comprised of three (3) unique concerts. Each festival season revolves around a central theme meant to engage the public imagination. These low-cost concert events are performed at different venues where artists talk about and perform music from different times and places in world history. In 2024, 268 people attended these concerts in various community venues.
