Grace Concert Series
Welcome to the 2012 Family Concert Series at Grace United Methodist Church!
We are pleased and excited to bring you eight wonderful concerts this new year, featuring unique, world-class artists from a variety of musical genres, all in the accessible, intimate, acoustically ideal Grace Sanctuary. Like our magnificent "Gift of Love" concert on December 18, 2011, which benefited homeless patrons of Hesed House in Aurora, each of our concerts this year will benefit a worthy project. This year's beneficiaries include: National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI DuPage); North Central College Music Internship/Scholarship; and Grace Summer Mission/Work Projects. All concerts are affordably priced at $18 adults/$13 seniors 65+/$7.50 students. And there is plenty of free parking! Tickets can be purchased and seats reserved here online or in the Grace Church office. Corporate and individual sponsorships are available as well; contact 630-355-1748, ext. 232, or danwagner@peopleofgrace.org to be included in the 2012 Sponsors' Book!
