Annual Fund
Comprising nearly 40 percent of the institution's annual budget, the Annual Fund is a critical source of revenue for the AMFS and provides assistance to every aspect of its operations. Your gift directly supports the Festival and School’s dedicated staff, artist-faculty, and students, mission, and long-term stability.
