Access Contemporary Music’s Thirsty Ears Festival is Chicago’s only classical music street festival. For two days we close Wilson Ave. in front of our music school for stellar music performances, craft beer and wine, food trucks and community vendors.
We feature a small sample of the contemporary music performed on this year’s festival.
