Zoo hours are MON-FRI: 11am-3pm and SAT-SUN: 12-4pm
Chamber Music on the Fox
Arcomusical is an ensemble which reimagines the Afro-Brazilian berimbau through the lens of chamber music, generating unique musical performances.
Bring chairs, blankets and lunch to enjoy these outstanding classical outdoor concerts under the bucolic shade of Tefft Farm’s trees. All ages welcome!
All programs are drop-ins and FREE! This year the Friends of Lords Park Zoo is underwriting 34 programs. Thank you to our many annual partners: Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church of Elgin, Chamber Music on the Fox, City of Elgin Parks & Recreation Department, Gail Borden Public Library, Elgin Historical Society, Elgin Public Museum, and Side Street Art Studio and, of course, to our many generous Elgin residents who donate money and their invaluable time volunteering.
