Fundraising Events

On May 2, 2026, 6-11 pm, we will host Flower Power - our annual dinner-dance event, in Darien, with live music, raffles, and auctions. And, starting April 29, you can bid on exciting prizes in our online auction! This event will raise funds that are crucial to our ongoing ability to make great music for audiences in Chicago's western suburbs.

We hope you will join us both online and in person - you can see all the details and make your reservation here.  The dinner-dance is casual; there's no need for tuxes or evening gowns. Instead, come as you are or set your inner hippie free and dress accordingly. You'll enjoy a scrumptious family-style meal, open beer and wine bar, and cash cocktail bar. And the True Story trio will get you on your feet dancing to the Best.Classic.Rock.Ever. From the Summer of Love to the Age of Aquarius and beyond.

You're also welcome to participate in our Give 'n Groove special donation campaign, where the first $6,000 of donations of $100 or more will be matched by anonymous donors.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our recent Maestro's Silver Celebration party and fundraising campaign, honoring Peter Lipari's 25th season as our music director and conductor. Here's a short video tribute from our players and singers - we think you'll enjoy it!
