Become a Member
Friends and Patrons
Become a member of the close-knit Oxford Philharmonic family by supporting the Orchestra and its activities. Despite being able to welcome full audiences back to our venues, the devastating impact of the pandemic in 2020 continues to stifle the performing arts and we rely more than ever on the generosity of our members and regular donors to support our work.
The future of the Oxford Philharmonic is in your hands, and with your help we can continue to share our passion, bringing exceptional musicians and awe-inspiring performances to your, your friends and family, and the entire Oxford community. Our Friends and Patrons are the backbone of the Oxford Phil and can enjoy a range of benefits as thanks for their support.
