Rendezvous Arts — a series under Canterbury Concert Series — brings music, visual art, and community spirit together across Northwest Illinois and greater Chicagoland. Initially founded in spring 2020 by a collective of artists responding to pandemic-era challenges, Rendezvous Arts has grown into a vibrant nonprofit platform dedicated to reshaping artistic expression, nurturing emerging talent, and spreading the joy of live music and art.
As part of Canterbury Concert Series, Rendezvous Arts delivers a curated lineup of performances and exhibitions across multiple venues — including Dixon, Lake Forest, and Chicago — offering 23 events in the 2025–26 season alone. These monthly gatherings (plus special events like the Ravenswood ArtWalk) showcase everything from string quartets and jazz ensembles to live painting and multimedia art.
Whether you’re a longtime music lover or new to the arts scene, Rendezvous Arts offers something for everyone: world-class performances, local talent, and an inviting community atmosphere under the broader Canterbury umbrella.
