Core Values:
Inland Northwest Musicians was founded in 1999 by a group of instrumentalists and vocalists interested in forming a classical music organization that reflected certain core values. Inland Northwest Musicians was built around these cornerstone beliefs:

Music is for everyone, regardless of income or geographic location.
Audiences everywhere deserve to share in the world's greatest music in live performance.
All musicians, including beginners, deserve to develop their talent.
Music is a lifelong pursuit that contributes to health, well-being and a high quality of life.

A regional arts organization should truly represent and serve the region, be "owned" by and accountable to its membership.

All constituents are valued - musicians, audience members, staff, volunteers and financial contributors.

Inland Northwest Musicians abides by these core values. It is what makes us unique from any other program.
