Support Jorgensen

Jorgensen thrives through the generosity of its supporters — from dedicated volunteers and donors to arts enthusiasts who give their time, talent, and resources. Programs like the CoStars, Circle of Friends, Lenard Chamber Music Endowment Fund, JOY! Outreach, and the Director’s Fund help sustain performances, educational outreach, and facility growth. Opportunities such as Endowed Sponsorships, the Legacy Circle, and Volunteer Ushers invite everyone to play a meaningful role in preserving and enriching the arts at UConn.

  • Weekly instrumental/vocal lessons with private teacher of choice for one school year.
  • Opportunities, when available, to participate in master classes and ensemble coachings.
  • A chance to perform in a JOY! Conservatory recital.

Additionally, students in the JOY! Conservatory Program receive complimentary access to select professional performances, concerts, recitals, and master classes at the Jorgensen Center for the Performing Arts and the UConn School of Fine Arts in Storrs.
