BELOIT â The Beloit Janesville Symphony Orchestra (BJSO) is holding its year-end annual appeal fundraiser in hopes of raising enough funds to maintain itself as a high-quality professional orchestra.
BJSO President Larry Arft said the BJSO annual budget is about $200,000 for a normal year with four to five full concerts. The budget for June 2020 through June 2021 was $158,000.
âWe cut back a bit on the season due to COVID. We knew we couldnât produce a regular season, and other performances were cancelled,â Arft said.
BJSO has struggled after the recession, with its latest blow being the pandemic.
âGetting new support is hard to do when you canât put on concerts,â Treasurer John Rapp said.
