STAGE TUBE: Patti LuPone, Ann Hampton Callaway, and More Salute Ravinia Women's Board

The 2012 Ravinia Festival season was a major milestone for the wonderful ladies of our Women's Board. This marked their 50th Anniversary, and numerous Ravinia artists from Patti LuPone to Jim Belushi showed their support. In the video, Patti LuPone, Ann Hampton Callaway, and more chat about the board!

Since 1904, Ravinia Festival Association has been Chicago's "sound of summer," a place where you can meet up with your friends, have a wonderful time and hear some of the greatest music in the world. We've got stars on the stage and stars in the sky, and it's all within your reach. But there's more to Ravinia than merely the world's greatest music.

For as many people who walk through Ravinia's gate each summer, there are just as many ways to enjoy what we call "The Ravinia Experience." For some, it all starts with a picnic picked up along the way, followed by a hop on the train and greeting your friends at your favorite spot on the lawn. Gradually, day turns into evening, and from the comfort of your perfect lawn spot, it culminates in a great concert by candlelight as you gaze at the stars above.
