Britt Festivals produces and presents a broad spectrum of performing arts, connects audiences to the inspirational power of classical music and helps new generations of listeners discover the wonder of music and live performance.
The individual words within our vision are important and reflect key strategic concepts:
• Inspired by our venue:
We are not limited to presenting only on the hill in the Britt Gardens, but we are mindful that it is our heritage and our brand identity. We recognize the importance of preserving this identity in other presenting endeavors.
• Invites audiences and artists:
We extend an invitation to both audiences and artists to come and experience something extraordinary. We maintain an environment that is friendly, welcoming and appreciative for artists as well as audiences to enable the special audience/performer synergy that our intimate venue offers.
• Celebrate:
We are a music festival and a festival is a celebration!
• The joy of live performance:
A live performance at Britt engages all the senses: sight, smell, taste, touch and of course hearing. And it offers a unique connection between the audience and artist that can't be replicated electronically, or at any other venue.
• The power of community:
Britt is about more than the music. From its inception, we've been part of a community of people who come together to support the performing arts and enjoy the communal experience of being an audience.
• The magic of the Britt Experience:
The most extraordinary thing about Britt is our setting, with its unique intimacy and magic. Britt is more than a concert-it's an experience.
• Produces and presents performing arts:
We present touring artists and we also produce performing arts that are unique to Britt. Both are important aspects of maintaining our role as cultural stewards in our community. We connect southern Oregon to the arts in a unique way that enhances the cultural vitality of the region.
• Connect audiences to the power of classical music:
Britt was founded to use our beautiful, natural setting to connect people to classical music. We must continue to open the hearts and minds of new listeners, as well as deepen our engagement with existing audiences.
• Help new generations discover the wonder of music:
The Britt Institute includes education and community outreach programs that inspire, develop talent and offer opportunities for people to engage with artists and music beyond the stage.
