Financial Facts
The Louisville Youth Orchestra offers an extraordinary opportunity for young musicians in our community.  Each member receives nearly 100 hours of rehearsal with professional conductors, inspiring performance opportunities, and innovative programs.  The cost of providing these opportunities averages approximately $1,000 per member each year.

The LYO strives, however, to keep membership fees as affordable as possible.  Membership in the core programs is $350 per year with discounts for families with more than one member and with scholarships to make membership possible for those without financial means.

So where does the remaining money come from?  Major support is provided by the Fund for Arts.  Support is also received from the Kentucky Arts Council, special grants, and generous contributors.  It's easy to see that programming would not be possible without additional support.
