Dark Star Orchestra Donates $10,000
to the Rex Foundation
in Memory of Bob Weir

DSO and Rex board members with giant check

Huge thanks to Dark Star Orchestra for their incredible generosity and longtime support of the Rex Foundation!

During their recent run at the Fox Theater, DSO presented a $10,000 donation to Rex in front of a room full of family, friends, and community. In a truly special moment, an anonymous donor matched the gift on the spot, doubling the impact.

This support directly fuels the work of the Rex Foundation, helping fund grassroots organizations rooted in music, arts, education, and social good. We are endlessly grateful to DSO and to our wider community for continuing to turn this music into meaningful action.
