Overture
Young Professionals
Supporting Arts Education
About Us

Overture Young Professionals is an exciting and dynamic Orange County-based non-profit 501(c)(3) organization comprised of young professionals who raise funds to support arts education programs for a variety of non-profit arts groups.

Overture's goal is to increase its visibility within the community and solidify its position as the leading independent Young Professionals fundraising organization in Orange County. Overture accomplishes this goal through a variety of fun and dynamic events that offer young professionals a chance to network and raise funds while enjoying uplifting cultural experiences.     

Overture was originally formed to raise funds for the Pacific Symphony’s arts-X-press music education program for middle school students. That program is now fully funded, so Overture has established its own non-profit organization.

Overture has hosted numerous fun events, inlcuding themed wine tastings, an annual scavenger hunt aboard electric boats cruising Newport Harbor, cocktail parties and mixers, and a Race for the Music bicycle competition on the Balboa Peninsula. 

Overture's most recent arts partners include Young Singers of OC, The OC Performing Arts Center, The Laguna Playhouse, Arts OC, and the Newport Beach Nautical Museum.
