Abstract
This case study was created to discover how the Philadelphia Orchestra Association's Education and Community Partnerships Department's programs evolved and changed from 1965-2011 and if they were affected by the Orchestra's labor issues. It used qualitative research from interviews and questionnaires with former and current employees of the Orchestra as well as materials and archives from the Orchestra in addition to outside sources. The study concluded that there was no direct link between the labor strikes and the programs, but the labor strike of 1996 likely had an influence on the Orchestra's programming.
