The Mesquite Symphony Orchestra is unique from most of the other symphony orchestras in the area because all its musicians volunteer their time and services. Since 1994, the MSO has been under the direction of Roger Gilliam, who was also a playing member of the MSO from 1988-90, serving as principal trumpet.
Each year Brookhaven College and the MSO collaborate for two concerts. The first is in Mesquite and the second is at Brookhaven, which benefits the college's music department scholarship fund.
Information from the orchestra's site; member names withheld at their request.

Redefining the Disfranchised: The Political Art of Nina Allender As we continue to celebrate the 88th Anniversary of Women's Right to Vote, there's a prime opportunity to view influential art from the era. Nina Evans Allender drew political cartoons for The Suffragist from 1914 into the 1920s, transforming stereotypical views of who a suffragist was. Over the years, Allender contributed more than 250 political cartoons to the movement, a number of which are on display at the Women's Museum at Fair Park. More info
