The mission of the Whidbey Island Youth Orchestra is to provide quality musical experiences for the youth of Whidbey Island that foster the joy of music-making, offer opportunities to apply skills acquired in private study, build self-confidence, and serve audiences Island-wide through performance and outreach. The program includes sectional coaching sessions, rehearsals, and performances throughout the season.

The mission of the Whidbey Island Community Orchestra is to foster a positive musical experience for its musician members and the community for whom we perform. We perform for the love of music and for the opportunity to spread the joy of music to Whidbey Island audiences, be they residents or visitors.
