ANGEL AWARD

Recognizing the extraordinary commitment by a patron in supporting the Santa Fe Desert Chorale’s goals of artistic excellence, community engagement, and organizational stability and growth.

Catherine and Guy Gronquist

Cathy and Guy Gronquist moved to Santa Fe from London in September 2008. Long-time visitors to the City Different, they got involved in local non-profits: Guy at the Interfaith Community Shelter where he served as Board Chair and Cathy at the Santa Fe Botanical Garden where she served as Treasurer and then Board President. A chance meeting with Nina Hinson and Scott Rasmussen on the very first day of the Rail Runner in December 2008 lead to an important friendship and their introduction to SFDC. Subsequently, Guy served as Board Chair of the MNMF and now serves on the Santa Fe Opera Board. Cathy joined the Board of SFDC in November 2018 as Treasurer and currently serves as Board President. The couple cherishes the wonderful musical experiences that the Chorale has provided over the years, but a highlight is feeding the broader Chorale family twice a year!

We look forward to sharing more information soon regarding these and other sponsorship opportunities. Thank you for your consideration and continued generosity.
