Music to empower young artists and musicians in Boston, support local environmental outreach initiatives, and raise awareness on the impacts of climate change on communities in Boston.
In partnership with the School for the Environment (SFE) at the University of Massachusetts Boston, Eureka Ensemble is proud to lead a series of performances and programs that raise awareness around the local impacts of climate change in New England by empowering young artists in Boston to be change-makers in their communities.
Our inaugural event on April 30th at 7pm will take place, with a preview on April 22nd at 7pm as part of UMass Boston’s Earth Week. The event will focus on original songs written by four young musicians especially for this event, with additional environmentally-focused music.
