Our Festival Friends are a highly valued part of SIFA in providing exceptional music and the performing arts to our local community.  The support of individuals, who share our passion for the arts, can provide the opportunities that will make an enormous difference to the cultural life of our community.

​

We aim to engage our audience through a diverse programme of music and the performing arts, whilst our education and outreach work will bring communities together.

​

Ticket sales cover less than a third of the cost of our work, so we rely on generous donations from our Festival Friends and grant-making organisations.  By becoming a Festival Friend, your donation will contribute to all areas of SIFA, from bringing wonderful performers and artists to our community, to new resources for our education programmes.

​

In return for your support we offer members exclusive benefits: newsletters, social events, and the opportunity to be part of this exciting new venture that brings the very best of the performing arts to the community.

​

If you would like to join our Festival Friends you are assured of a very warm welcome.
