Chamber Concerts

Attend intimate classical concerts in the Thornhill Education Center, sip hot cider, and meet the artists at a special reception.

Content Detail

Enjoy intimate classical concerts hosted monthly at The Morton Arboretum’s Thornhill Education Center.

From November 2025 through March 2026, five concerts will be given by small ensembles in the Arbor Room, where floor-to-ceiling windows offer gorgeous views of the Arboretum’s grounds and gardens. The diverse performance schedule features fresh perspectives on traditional repertoire as well as creative fusions that expand the chamber music art form.

A post-concert reception will be held in the Founder’s Room following each performance. Enjoy hot coffee, lemonade, and hot cider while mingling with fellow concert-goers and the artists.

All performances begin at 2:15 p.m. During the winter months, guests are encouraged to allow extra time to park and enter the venue.
