We believe that the arts should be accessible to all, so we participate in the Card to Culture program through the Zeiterion Box Office. Card to Culture lets EBT, WIC, and ConnectorCare cardholders purchase tickets to most NBSO and Zeiterion events for $5 each. This special Card to Culture ticket price offers the experience of performances that span the genres – from concerts, to comedy, to musicals, and more.
EBT, WIC, and ConnectorCare card holders must present their card in person at the Zeiterion Box Office to receive the Card to Culture $5 ticket price. Maximum of four (4) tickets per cardholder per event while quantities last. All NBSO symphony concerts are eligible, but for a list of Zeiterion shows, visit zeiterion.org/events and click on Card to Culture in the right-hand column.
