2025 – 26 Season Sponsors & Donors

Without the continued generous support of our Sponsors and Donors, the mission of the EMMA Concert Association would not be possible.

Please know how much the EMMA Concert Association needs and appreciates the support of sponsors in order to continue providing residents and visitors to St. Johns County with world class musical performances at modest prices. Our affordable ticket fees cannot begin to cover all of the expenses associated with our concerts which include artist fees, concert operations, hospitality, and free parking accompanied by a free shuttle.

Location

“In 1993 EMMA found a permanent place for its performances at the Lewis Auditorium at Flagler College”

Originally EMMA Concert Association held concerts in many different places in St. Augustine including the Lightner Museum, the Presbyterian Church, Kirk Auditorium (The Florida School for the Deaf and Blind), the Episcopal Church and the Riverview Club; it was not until 1993 that EMMA found a permanent place for its performances. After forming a partnership with Flagler College, the Lewis Auditorium at Flagler College has become EMMA’s home for all musical concerts and events.

For the 2025-26 concert season, EMMA will be offering five performances featuring a variety of local, national, and international orchestras. These performances also count as co-curricular events for students of Flagler College.
