New Spire Arts
The NSS is delighted to again partner with New Spire Arts to present our informances in Frederick, MD.

It is with deep sadness that the NSS shares the news of the sudden passing of our Director of Orchestra Operations, Mary Thomas. Mary was a generous and supportive member of our team and she will be deeply missed.
