The Arkansas Symphony Orchestra announced Monday that it has raised $7.1 million in its recently concluded 3-year fundraising campaign, surpassing the $7 million goal.
Dr. Richard Wheeler, chairman of the orchestra's Board of Directors, said in a statement that the funds would "keep the orchestra accessible."
“It’s a very exciting day for the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra as well as orchestra supporters throughout the state,” Wheeler said.
The Orchestrating the Future campaign ended in June.
