ACM has produced a wide variety of events every year since our first production, Weekly Readings, back in 2004. All of our events are designed to be collaborative, to foster the creation of new music and to reach new audiences in pursuit of our goal of presenting contemporary classical music as a global, diverse and thriving art form.
Some of our productions were one-off events like Rags, Stomps and Strides while others like the Sound of Silent Film Festival and the Thirsty Ears Street Festival have become fixtures of the Chicago cultural scene. In recent years we’ve begun producing our more popular events in other cities and have branched out to New York, Austin, Barcelona and Mexico City.
