CHF Chicago Humanities Festival

CHF Membership

Chicago Humanities Festival members and supporters celebrate the power of ideas.

41% of the operating revenue for the Chicago Humanities Festival comes directly from individual donors like you—donors who choose to celebrate the power of ideas along with us.

With your generous support, CHF brings the arts and humanities to Chicago and beyond. This April and May, CHF presents performers from France, Israel, and Scotland as well as domestic and Chicago talents in its eleventh annual spring festival, Stages, Sights & Sounds. Check out these great benefits:

  1. CHF members can purchase tickets before the general public.
  2. Members receive 2 free tickets to David Gaines: 7(x1) Samurai on Sunday, May 2, 2010 at 5:00 pm and attend the Opening Weekend reception that follows the performance. Tickets must be registered by phone.
  3. Members who purchase tickets to a Stages, Sights & Sounds event receive 2 free tickets to one Fall Festival event of their choice. (Special events are exempt and some restrictions may apply).
  4. Members also hear about our 2010 fall festival theme, dates, and presenters before anyone else. Become a member or renew your membership today so you don't miss a single update.

Did you know that your membership also supports our year-round education programs for teachers, including Classics in Context and the Summer Institute for Teachers? Your support helps us bring resources to Chicago teachers and their classrooms.

Thank you in advance for your thoughtful gift and continued support of the festival.
