CAPITAL CITY SYMPHONY

JUNIOR GUEST CONDUCTOR

Your child (or grandchild) could be our next maestro! Put your child on the conductor's podium at a Capital City Symphony Concert and you may just unlock hidden talents or career goals. He or she will conduct one piece at the annual Family Concert on November 18, 2012.

The Capital City Symphony, in residence at the Atlas Performing Arts Center in Washington, D.C., auctions off "Junior Guest Conductor" spots each year for their popular Family Concert in November. Due to Hurricane Sandy, bidding has been extended until Sunday, November 11. 

This is a major annual fundraiser for the Capital City Symphony. An important part of our mission is encouraging young audience members. Tickets for kids (16 and under) are FREE for all CCS main season concerts. The annual Family Concert is geared specifically to kids, especially the older pre-school and elementary school set. The Junior Guest Conductor auction helps us to continue to offer these benefits for our youngest audience members.

Up to TWO winners permitted, one for each performance (2:30pm and 4:30pm).

Bidding closes Sunday, November 11th!
