Hi All! Please help me raise money for ESYO so ESYO can keep providing amazing opportunities and experiences. 

Playathon is Empire State Youth Orchestra’s most important fundraiser and friend-raiser of the year! This fun-filled day of free musical performances raises money for ESYO while showcasing the breadth and depth of our programs. It is the one day of the year when all ESYO ensembles (including CHIME) perform in one location!

Your support is needed now more than ever. The marathon display of musical talent helps ESYO ensure no qualified musician is ever turned away from the ESYO experience because of an inability to pay. The money raised will support a substantial portion of ESYO’s operating expenses and musician scholarships.

Thank you for your support of ESYO. And be sure to join us at Crossgates Mall on Saturday, March 15th from 10:30 am to 5:15 pm for PLAYATHON!!!
