WFMT’s Commitment to Excellence

The vision that propelled the founders of WFMT to establish the station in 1951 remains our mission today: to entertain, engage, inform, inspire, and respect listeners by providing the highest quality and variety of fine arts programming to be found anywhere on the airwaves.  Encore Society members of the Fine Arts Circle demonstrate their leadership commitment to WFMT with annual gifts of $1,000 or more.  Encore Society members enjoy an insider’s view of the station, invitations to special events, on-air recognition opportunities, and behind-the-scenes visits.  Additionally, Encore Society members take pride in knowing that their generosity and loyalty are the basis of WFMT’s strength.
