Support Buffalo Choral Arts Society

There are many ways to contribute!

Revenue from ticket sales covers approximately half of Buffalo Choral Arts Society’s expenses for the year. As a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization, we rely on donations from generous patrons and supporters to maintain our operating budget and pay for music and venue expenses.

Program Ads

BCAS performs four marquee concert events each year. We offer businesses, organizations, and faithful supporters the opportunity to purchase program ads for these concerts. In total, programs are distributed to more than 3,000 potential concertgoers. For your ad to be in the program for any concert, please submit it no later than two weeks before the date of the concert.
