Each season the VIS reaches more than 24,000 people through 19 live performances at the Port Theatre, Sid Williams Theatre, Tidemark Theatre, Outreach Programs, Education Concerts and Special Events adding to Nanaimo’s cultural vitality. As a result, the VIS attracts new residents, helps to drive our economy and contributes to the creative economy.

Vancouver Island Symphony EDUCATION CONCERTS
FOR ALL GRADE 4 STUDENTS
Education Shows allow ALL Grade 4 students, their teachers and chaperones an opportunity to hear a LIVE symphony performance in the Port Theatre. The Vancouver Island Symphony has partnered with School Districts #68 (Lady-smith-Nanaimo) and #71 (Comox Valley) to allow 1500+ Grade 4 students to attend the Education Show starring a special guest artist with the Vancouver Island Symphony, under the direction of conductor Pierre Simard and the VIS “Fabulous Fives” Choir. School Districts pay $1 per person plus bussing to the Port Theatre. The VI Symphony must raise $30,000 to produce these shows each year.

MUSICIAN TO SCHOOL PROGRAMA VIS musician will visit every school prior to the Education Show. Students learn about musical instruments, what a professional musician does, and they hear them perform. This offers students a connection with the musician, creating a more meaningful experience at the Education Show. Schools often have the entire school attend the musician’s presen-tation, increasing the music education experience for all students at the school.
