updated COVID policy for IMT venues (as of 4/1/23):

IMT recommends that masks be worn by attendees to protect themselves and recommends all patrons be vaccinated. Please do not attend any IMT concerts if you are not feeling well. If you have already purchased tickets, let us know by emailing office@imtfolk.org. 

Become a Patron of the Arts: Support IMT 

(Please add your phone number and home address to the notes field so that we may contact you in the event of cancelation, or to thank you with a letter for donations as appropriate.)

We work hard to present terrific concerts at low prices. We need help to keep our ticket prices down, so that our shows are accessible to as many people as possible. We are a small organization, and donations from individuals make a significant difference to us. Over a quarter of our budget comes from cash and in-kind donations, much more than from grants. 

Please consider making a donation to IMT. Even the smallest donation is a big help and you can give at easily and securely at paypal.me/imtfolk! Please add your phone number and home address to the notes field so that we may contact you in the event of cancelation, or to thank you with a letter for donations as appropriate.

You can make a donation at any concert. Donation forms can be found at the CD table. 

You can also make a contribution online at any time in any amount with the button above.

If you would prefer to donate by check, please mail it to:

Silver Spring, MD 20903 

Donations support IMT's general operations unless the donor specifies otherwise. Please contact our executive director at office@imtfolk.org for more information or to discuss a targeted donation, a large donation or a bequest. 

Of course, we welcome any donation, large or small, at any time. 

Help Support IMT!

Our shows wouldn't happen without our family of volunteers and we're always looking for more people to help with all aspects of our operation. You can give easily on our Support Page or join us and Volunteer today!

Our tickets only cover about 70% of the actual cost of a show. Click here to learn how to become a patron of the arts by supporting the Institute of Musical Traditions!
