Merrimans’ Playhouse @ the Raclin Murphy: Chicago Street Orchestra

Join us for an enchanting summer evening at the Raclin Murphy Museum, featuring the Chicago Street Orchestra, the premier Latin jazz ensemble of Chicago. Experience a delightful mix of salsa, cumbia, samba, and Afro-beat on the Hiler Family Terrace. Bring a blanket or lawn chair to relax under the sun, while enjoying scrumptious food from Ivan’s Cafe, small plates from Oh Mamma’s, and refreshing drinks from Perry Vine. The CSO, made up of talented musicians from the Midwest music scene including Gordon Walters and Danjuma Gaskin, promises unmatched energy for both dancers and listeners. Don’t miss the opportunity to explore the museum galleries showcasing art that complements the performance. This event, curated by Stephen and Mary Merriman of Merrimans’ Playhouse, offers free parking in the Visitor Lot after 4:30 p.m. Join us for a night filled with music and culture!
