37th Annual Arts + Business Council Awards logo in grey, orange and blue.
Orchestra 2001 was honored to be selected as the only performing arts group in the city to receive the 2022 Philadelphia Arts & Business Council Award for our ongoing EMERGING MARKETS concert series, with dozens of concerts reaching thousands of Philadelphians where they work, shop, and play. Many of our events will continue to be offered free or pay-as-you-wish to the public, including in areas of the city with little or no access to live performing arts.  

Help our musicians reach every corner of our city with beautiful, innovative, and meaningful live performances that embrace the rich cultural diversity of Philadelphia!
