Since 1980, the Coeur d’Alene Symphony Orchestra has been enriching North Idaho with outstanding musical performances. Led by Music Director Danh Pham and Assistant Conductor Phil Baldwin, the symphony aims to explore music as a universal language, delivering excellence and innovative programs to engage both current and future audiences.



My name is Jillian, and I have been an editor and writer here in Coeur d’Alene since 2006, during which time I’ve had the opportunity to work for nine publications across North Idaho, into Spokane and as far as Gig Harbor, Washington. I am grateful to have the opportunity to now focus all my attention, energy and passion on my local community, finding and sharing heartfelt stories, spotlighting the incredible people, showcasing local businesses, organizations and nonprofits, and of course highlighting the many wonderful events our area has to offer.
