Celebrate Te Deum’s artistry and the transformative power of choral music at Lumine 2025, the ensemble’s signature fundraising event that ensures the continued excellence of Kansas City’s premier professional choral ensemble. As Te Deum’s largest annual fundraiser, Lumine provides vital support for our professional singers, allowing us to inspire and enrich our community through compelling and thought-provoking performances.
Lumine will offer a fusion of music, art, and fine dining. Guests will begin the night with a selection of beer and wine before enjoying an intimate performance at the museum’s newly renovated restaurant, Oil on Linen. Sponsors and premium ticket holders are invited to extend the evening with a seated dinner in the museum’s Atrium, dining alongside Te Deum singers amidst striking contemporary art.
