Barton College/Wilson Symphony Orchestra

From soaring crescendos to soothing melodies, music deeply touches each listener. Enjoy beautiful sounds performed by professional musicians and vocalists. Join with fellow music lovers, and support the Symphony Orchestra.

Friends of Hackney Library

Cleverly crafted words printed on crisp leaves portray vivid scenes in the mind of a reader. Meet the writers of some of your favorite books, and participate in special programs.

Friends of Visual Arts

The balance of color and composition. The power of shape and structure. The poetry of film and negative. Visual art at once invites and excites. Exhibitions, gallery openings, artist lectures, and more are part of the experience. Enhance your appreciation of visual art with likeminded patrons.

Theatre at Barton

Poignant classical drama, outrageous musical comedy, and new works from contemporary playwrights are all explored on stage in Barton's Lauren Kennedy and Alan Campbell Theatre.

Signature Memberships

Music. Literature. Art. Why limit yourself to just one? Signature level memberships allow you to support all of Barton's cultural societies and share in their combined benefits.
