Martinis That Matter

Sunday, February 24th from 2PM-5PM
Marty’s Martini Bar, 1511 West Balmoral Avenue, Chicago

Last year’s Martinis That Matter event was a smash hit, so we’re bringing it back for a third round! We hope that all of our Chicago-area fans will join us at Marty’s Martini Bar on Sunday, February 24th from 2-5 PM for a fundraiser that will support our Music Inspires! program in Chicago Public Schools.

Music Inspires! is a week-long special collaboration between Classical Kids Live! and the Oistrakh Symphony of Chicago designed to introduce underserved elementary schoolers to the joys of classical music and the extraordinary lives of the great classical composers. The residency kicks off with an all-school assembly (featuring a teaser of the show!), revs up with in-classroom activities, and culminates in a full production of a Classical Kids Live! performance, orchestra and all! Every raffle ticket and delicious drink you purchase at Marty’s will help us introduce local students to the brilliance of Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi, and Tchaikovsky!
