The Joel Revzen Legacy Fund
An important and meaningful way for you to invest in Classical Tahoe, and ensure its future, is by making a gift to the Joel Revzen Legacy Fund. This fund was recently created to honor the passion and vision of Classical Tahoe’s founding Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Joel Revzen, and to establish a long-term funding mechanism for the organization he so loved.
Our goal is to raise $5 million in five years. Gifts will be invested in an endowment to generate income for our programs so we can continue Joel’s vision to bring the world’s greatest classical and jazz musicians to Lake Tahoe, as well as provide music education and professional development at the highest level.
To make a gift to the Joel Revzen Legacy Fund, please contact Joanne Taylor at 775-298-0245 or joanne@classicaltahoe.org.
