Community Partner

We are proud to announce that Target has partnered with the Wichita Falls Symphony Orchestra to help fund a new educational program for high school students and students from the Boys and Girls Clubs.  The Young Audience Program seeks to give students a taste of the symphony through an in-school presentation with a few of the symphony's musicians and inviting them to come to one of our concerts.  The importance of music education is inexplicable, for as Plato said:  "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything else."  To find a large corporation as Target who is willing to participate in the education of high school students and invest in their lives is refreshing and encouraging.
