Grants In Action

Fifth House Ensemble

A grant from the Racine Community Foundation helped bring the Fifth House Ensemble to Racine to perform at RAM for the Racine First Friday in May celebration. As part of its chamber music residency in the Kenosha/Racine area, Fifth House Ensemble, along with student ensembles from Carthage College and Bradford High School, presented a collaborative performance at the Racine Art Museum. Racine’s May First Friday event was well attended and many people enjoyed the performance of the Fifth House Ensemble.

The overall goal was to leave a lasting impact on the cultural life of Kenosha and Racine by revitalizing existing resources available in these communities for live performance.
