Celebration!

Saturday, March 14, 2026, 7:30 pm, Dick Van Dyke Auditorium (DHS)

Join us for Celebration, a concert celebrating the 200th anniversary of Vermilion County! This special event will feature musical selections that pay tribute to Vermilion County and its history of military and civic service, agriculture and industry, hometown Hollywood legends, and more! This concert will also feature a world premiere of a new work specifically written for this celebratory occasion by Illinois-based composer, Tim Corpus, titled Where the Rivers Meet.

$15,000 Match Challenge!

The DSO is a proud recipient of a $15,000 Anonymous Title Concert Sponsorship for our Origin Stories concert on September 27th. Our anonymous donor presented us with a challenge. If we could raise another $15,000 before our performance of The Nutcracker on December 7th, they will match it with another $15,000—bringing in a total of $45,000! We are pleased to announce that we have exceeded that match! We are extremely grateful to everyone who has helped us achieve our goal. We do not grow without you. We do not thrive without you. And we cannot spread the joy of orchestral music in our community without you!
