Shelter Music Boston presents monthly chamber music concerts in Greater Boston homeless shelters, delivering live classical music as a social service. 

​Every note invests in the capacity of classical music to create social change in environments of great need.  ​

Every concert inspires hope in shelter audiences and ​transforms shelter environments.

"Music is the catalyst for opportunities to look a homeless individual in the eye and say
​'I want to know what you think about this, and I am going to listen to your story.' "
​Julie Leven, Founder and Artistic Director

We train professional musicians, committed to bringing dignity to shelters with live performances, in our unique, interactive concert model.  We employ these performers to present a new program of classical chamber music monthly in each of our partner shelters.
