The 2025-2026 Rappahannock Concert Association Season

With a dual mission of Providing quality live performances to a subscriber base and the broader Northern Neck community, and Supporting and funding music education to the region’s youth, RCA continues to offer world-class entertainment at an extraordinary value.

Founded in 1983 by a handful of dedicated volunteers, Rappahannock Concert Association incorporated in 2000 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization governed by an all- volunteer board of directors. The RCA, in partnership with the Northumberland Public Schools, moved to its state-of- the-art theater in 2008.

RCA supports music education in the Northern Neck

RCA continues to support and fund music education for the region’s youth.

• Our Strings Crewe program for elementary violin, viola and cello continues to grow. In September 2021, ten Strings Crewe students graduated to the String Orchestra for Northern Neck Youth (SONNY).
• We award grants to teachers so they can enhance the school music programs.
• We sponsor live student concerts in the schools.
• We collect used wind, brass, and string instruments (no pianos or keyboards) for our local schools.
• Students may attend our concerts for free!

RCA appreciates the support of our generous donors, the Northern Neck businesses and our partners. Their contributions enable RCA to support music education in the Northern Neck.
