SUPPORT

AMERICAN MUSIC FESTIVAL

Only about 25% of the operating budget for the AMF comes from concert ticket sales. Generous donors from the community keep our doors open and allow AMF to continue to provide free admission to students and military personnel.

PLANNED GIVING

Leave a Legacy of Music

In 2024, the AMF gratefully received a bequest from the Hugh Cullman Trust. This bequest will help AMF remain a strong organization well into the future, assisting us in realizing current and future concert and education goals and we hope it will be a lead donation of a formal planned giving program (which we plan to initiate during the 2024-2025 music season.)

If you wish to “Leave a Legacy of Music for the Crystal Coast” of NC, please consider designating AMF as a beneficiary in your will or other financial instruments.
