Lakeshore Rush is very excited to announce that our seeds have been planted for a special one night only concert at the gorgeous Garfield Park Conservatory, made possible by the generous support of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events! This new growth will be an exploration of the connection of music and the arts to the environment around us and the growing need for sustainability. Selections will include works by Mason Bates, Bill Ryan, Christopher Cerrone, Astor Piazzolla, and a new commission by Lakeshore Rush Composer-in-Residence Amos Gillespie. Stay tuned for more details, as we look forward to new safety guidelines for concerts and events.
This project is partially supported by an Individual Artist Program Grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events, as well as a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency, a state agency through federal funds provided by the National Endowment for the Arts.
