Lumine: [loo-​mee-​nay], Latin, “light”

Thank you for joining us at Lumine 2025! Your presence and enthusiasm made this year’s event a remarkable success.

We hope you were inspired by the music, enjoyed the illuminating atmosphere of the Kemper Museum, and connected with other incredible supporters. Your support and presence is what makes the annual Lumine fundraiser such a vibrant and compelling event.

Thanks to your incredible generosity we raised nearly $80,000 through Lumine, vital support that ensures we can continue presenting sacred choral music in Kansas City.
