SUPPORT OUR FIFTEENTH ANNIVERSARY

As we mark our 15th anniversary in 2025, we invite you to join us in supporting our vision of a world in which classical music is embraced as an integral component of professionally delivered social services in sheltering environments.

Each month, Shelter Music Boston performs live classical chamber music concerts at community partners—homeless shelters, recovery centers, low-income housing sites, and programs for children throughout Greater Boston. The transformation in our audiences is immediate and palpable. After a recent concert at an emergency shelter for women who are unhoused, one listener told us, “Music helps my depression and anxiety. I felt happier and loved the music.”

 

At Shelter Music Boston, we know our work is a lifeline for people who are managing complex challenges. Generous donors like you make this impact possible, and we cannot do this important work without your partnership. Our musicians reached more than 1,400 audience members through 101 live concerts in 2024, and we aim to reach even more people this year.
