Welcome to Max Rewards: Your DSO's Patron Program
Access and experiences through exceptional benefits.
Your passion is critical to our ongoing success. Each time you make a gift, attend a concert, or encourage a friend to support our orchestra, you pave the way to a vital, viable and visible DSO. We know our successes wouldn't be possible without these efforts, so we thank you for making us a community-supported orchestra and ensuring that music and music education remain vibrant at Orchestra Hall, throughout Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan, and around the world.
We are honored to recognize you as a Patron of the DSO—through your purchases and contributions—as part of the Community Circle, a Friend, a Member, or a Governing Member.
All contributions include recognition in the DSO Honor Roll, based on giving level, and invitation to the complimentary Patron Appreciation Concert.
