The Philadelphia Orchestra and Ensemble Arts is boldly leading the way in building a bright, inclusive future for the performing arts—as the center of cultural life in Philadelphia, and as a model for the nation. With extraordinary artistic ambition and a commitment to reflecting the magic on stage in every interaction, we leave an indelible mark on audiences through the transformative power of the performing arts. This is where a universe of world-class art forms, genres, and ideas takes shape. With the GRAMMY-winning Philadelphia Orchestra and visionary Music and Artistic Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin as the centerpiece, we feature vibrant, multi-genre programming performed at the highest level, animating our stages—including the newly renamed Marian Anderson Hall—and attracting millions to our venues each year. Ensemble Arts Philly presents bold and innovative performances, bringing talented artists together with experiences as diverse as our region. Our three venues—the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, the Academy of Music, and the Miller Theater—are vividly brought to life with the best of Broadway, comedy, theater, jazz, dance, and family presentations. As champions for music education and community engagement, we help to eliminate barriers to access and maximize impact while uniting, inspiring, and educating people of all ages and backgrounds. We transform the lives of more than 35,000 K-12 students each year through free arts education programs in music, dance, and theater. As a mission-based non-profit organization, at the heart of our work is the belief that the arts are for everyone. While fostering an environment where all feel welcome, we serve as a canvas for creativity, a platform for expression, and a sanctuary for inspiration.
