The Musical Offering is an educational institution committed to the growth and development of the individual and community through music instruction and performance. The Musical Offering is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit institution.

It is our goal to provide a supportive and nurturing environment in which students, teachers and all lovers of music can explore and deepen their relationship to music and self-expression. The Musical Offering also serves as a meeting place and forum for the musical community in Evanston and the surrounding area. We believe in the promotion of beauty, artistic freedom and self-empowerment engendered by the shared musical experience.
