Illinois State University School of Music alumni are warmly invited back to campus for Catching Up with Cookies, a casual pre-concert gathering held before select final spring ensemble concerts.
Join us one hour before each concert to reconnect with fellow alumni, reminisce, and satisfy a sweet craving before settling in for a great performance!
Alumni are welcome to attend any and all of the concerts listed below. As a special thank you, the first 20 alumni to RSVP for each concert will receive a complimentary ticket to that performance.
