SOUL REFRESH

Fresh Chicago Music, Healing Vibes

Soul Refresh is a concert for lyrical healing and Chicago love. Bringing together an outstanding lineup of Chicago artists, we will take a night to celebrate our creativity, beauty, and resilience as individuals and communities. We’ll gather in the magnificent sanctuary hall of the Epiphany Center for the Arts on Chicago’s near west side, where the drinks are strong and the spiritual energy is even stronger! We hope you can join us for an unforgettable night. 

Special “Soul Refresh” cocktails will be available at the bar for this night only in honor of the event.
