Alice Coulombe was a beloved longtime trustee of Colburn, who was an active and dedicated member of our board for almost two decades.

Over the years, she brought many people into our community, as Board members, donors, and friends, and she worked tirelessly to build audiences for our performances, both on campus and throughout her adopted hometown of Pasadena.
Alice will long be remembered for her deep commitment and innumerable contributions to the cultural and musical landscape of Southern California. She will be greatly missed for her warmth, kindness, wit and remarkable ability to inspire others.

Below are memories and tributes from those who knew, loved, worked with, and admired Alice.
