FIRESIDE DONATION CAMPAIGN!

Throughout November, our goal is to raise $2,000 to sustain Lakeshore Rush and our mission: to present music by living composers and revive forgotten chamber masterpieces. If you can't be with us in person for our Fireside Concert & Fundraiser, this is your chance to be part of the celebration from wherever you are. Your gift directly supports our musicians, performances, and community programs that keep Chicago's new music scene vibrant.

Lakeshore Rush is a Chicago based ensemble that comprises six extraordinary musicians from across the Midwest. Our mission is to provide high-quality performances of new and traditional classical music, championing underperformed works, commissioning new repertoire, and increasing access for new audiences to classical and contemporary music. Lakeshore Rush is named after a previously endangered species of grass indigenous to the shores of Lake Michigan. Since its founding in 2014, the group has become known for its riveting performances, programming innovation, and synergistic collaboration.

We rely on the generous support of our donors to bring our vision to life. Please consider making a donation to help support our mission. Lakeshore Rush NFP is a tax-exempt organization as defined by the Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)3. All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
