JUILLIARD OVATION SOCIETY members directly support our promising young artists by helping sustain scholarships, performance activities, faculty advancement, the commissioning of new works, community outreach, and student services.

Ovation Society members have access not only to performances, but also "behind-the-scenes" events that showcase the artistic process itself, demystifying, for instance, how a work of modern dance evolves from initial conception to ultimate performance. The stimulating mix of jazz, theater, dance, opera, and orchestral music presentations offers members the opportunity to observe Juilliard students working with celebrated leaders in their fields and to meet and mingle with guest artists, faculty, students and friends.

As a member, your gift of $1,000 or more places you in the company of those visionaries willing to help nurture the next generation of performing arts.
