About the Tuesday Concert Series

The Church of the Epiphany, in the heart of downtown Washington,

D.C. has been serving those in need and celebrating the arts since its

founding in 1842. Every Tuesday free programs are offered to the

community by artists from around the world. The series enjoys

partnerships as well with local arts groups, including The Levine

School of Music and the Washington Bach Consort.

A beautiful and resonant acoustic space, a 64-rank Aeolian-Skinner

organ, and a 9-foot Steinway grand piano provide performers and

audiences alike with a glorious experience of the arts each Tuesday,

attracting those taking a break during their work day, tourists, and

groups of seniors on an outing.

Freewill donations help to defray the costs of maintaining the

instruments, administrative costs, and providing a small stipend for

the performers, but the need is always greater than the available

resources. Please consider a gift to the Tuesday Concert Series as it

continues to offer inspiring experiences of the arts for many years to

come. You can contact our Development and Communications

Associate Anya McMurrer at [email protected], to learn

more about giving and sponsorship opportunities.
