Painted Violin Fundraiser


Raffle to support Brevard Philharmonic and its Donate Your Instrument program

The Brevard Philharmonic is proud to present the 2024 Painted Violin Fundraiser, a unique initiative that beautifully intertwines art and music to support our orchestra and the Donate Your Instrument program. The mission of this program is to provide young musicians with the instruments they need to explore their musical potential, ensuring that every aspiring artist has the opportunity to learn, play, and thrive.

Brevard Philharmonic invited three local businesses in Brevard to partner with us in this creative endeavor. These generous sponsors, Broad Street Wines, Lucy Clark Gallery, and Theophilus embraced our vision and chose to give back to our community in a wonderfully artistic way. Their support allowed us to commission three talented artists, Billy Smith, Carol Clay and Courtney Carter, to transform violins into stunning works of art, each piece reflecting the spirit of creativity and collaboration that defines our community.

These extraordinary violins are now on display in the lobby during the concert, at our sponsors’ businesses and online. We encourage you to take a moment and consider buying a raffle ticket (or 3) to support this fundraiser and music education awareness. Raffle tickets for these violins directly benefit the Brevard Philharmonic and the Donate Your Instrument program.

We extend our deepest gratitude to our sponsors, artists, and supporters. Together, we’re creating something truly special—a community united through art and music.

The winners will be announced at the Christmastime in Brevard Concert on December 22nd. You do not have to be present to win.
