In addition to providing seasons of professional orchestral performances, TSO’s outreach programs include Heart Strings which serves area healthcare facilities. Currently, performers in the Heart Strings program can be found each month at the Jack C. Montgomery Veterans Administration Medical Center in Muskogee and the Cancer Treatment Center in Tulsa. Education programs are partnered with Rosa Parks Elementary, Kendall-Whittier Educare, and many local high schools.
