Ravinia is North America’s oldest and most programmatically diverse music festival, offering more than 140 events each year, including the summer residency of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, for about 600,000 guests. Its Reach*Teach*Play education programs serve more than 85,000 residents of Cook and Lake Counties, bringing music back to budget-strapped schools. Ravinia’s Steans Music Institute is an on-campus summer conservatory hosting 60-70 of the best emerging artists from around the world as fellows who study and perform with Ravinia’s headliners.
