The young professionals of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra’s Vivaldi Patron Circle joined together to mark a special year of rebranding with an elegant seated dinner at the Dallas Country Club on May 12. The evening featured a special performance by Alexis Shambley, daughter of Young Strings founder Dwight Shambley and Sho-Mei Pelletier, also DSO musicians.

The event was co-chaired by Alex Bolton and Christina Geyer who will serve as Co-Presidents for 2015-2016. A membership drive is being launched and opportunities are underway for members to be involved in the Vivaldi steering committee with leadership roles and volunteer opportunities.

Vivaldi Patron Circle is a group of individuals in their 20s, 30s, 40s who express an interest in the arts and wish to be part of the next audience for the Dallas Symphony. Young professionals are invited to join the Vivaldi Patron Circle by contacting Maliska Haba at m.haba@dalsym.com or 214.871.4005.
