About the Tuesday Concert Series
The Church of the Epiphany, in the heart of downtown Washington,
D.C. has been serving those in need and celebrating the arts since its
founding in 1842. Every Tuesday free programs are offered to the
community by artists from around the world. The series enjoys
partnerships as well with local arts groups, including The Levine
School of Music and the Washington Bach Consort.
A beautiful and resonant acoustic space, a 64-rank Aeolian-Skinner
organ, and a 9-foot Steinway grand piano provide performers and
audiences alike with a glorious experience of the arts each Tuesday,
attracting those taking a break during their work day, tourists, and
groups of seniors on an outing.
Freewill donations help to defray the costs of maintaining the
instruments, administrative costs, and providing a small stipend for
the performers, but the need is always greater than the available
resources. Please consider a gift to the Tuesday Concert Series as it
continues to offer inspiring experiences of the arts for many years to
come. You can contact our Development and Communications
Associate Anya McMurrer at [email protected], to learn
more about giving and sponsorship opportunities.
