Access Contemporary Music is proud to present the third annual Thirsty Ears Festival: Chicago’s only classical music street festival!
For two days Wilson Avenue between Hermitage and Ravenswood will be closed to feature fifteen stellar ensembles and soloists, including two Grammy winners, performing music on the main stage and in the All-Saints Church and, new this year, a special Sound of Silent Film Festival presentation at sundown on Saturday.
We’ll also have delicious beer from Empirical Brewing, vendor booths, kid friendly activities and food trucks on both days including the Fat Shallot, Bop Bar Korean and Sausage Fest.
