Alice Curry, Executive Director Of The Columbus Philharmonic

My philosophy of fundraising is: Share your vision, share your dream. And I had a vision and I certainly had a dream for this orchestra. And I gathered other people into sharing that with me.

Alice Curry helped found the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic Orchestra and in 1989 she was named executive director.

Except for two seasons in the mid-1990s when she was with the Asheville Symphony and the Louisville Orchestra, Curry has been at the helm of the Philharmonic.

During her tenure there, she has served on the League of American Orchestras as National Chair of Small-Budget Orchestras.

Curry was a chair of the Indiana Orchestra Consortium, is a past president of the IU Jacobs School of Music Alumni Association, and serves as a member of the Board of Directors.
