Legendary violinist Midori joins the renowned musicians of Switzerland's Festival Strings Lucerne, one of the most distinguished chamber orchestras in Europe. Conductor Daniel Dodds will lead Midori and the ensemble on a musical journey, in a program featuring works by Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Ravel and Helena Winkelman.

Midori began her meteoric career as a violin prodigy and by age 12, she had left audiences around the globe standing and cheering, with The New York Times declaring, “she is an artist of inspiring gifts.” See the breathtaking Midori perform one of the most beautiful concertos ever composed, Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto, along with a program featuring Beethoven’s Symphony No. 2 and more.

Step into a powerful new exhibition celebrating the fearless women of the Greek Revolution.

#WeAreGreekWarriors brings the heroines of 1821 into today’s cultural conversation through bold contemporary art and modern storytelling. Fighters, strategists, and champions of freedom, these extraordinary women helped shape history, yet many of their names remain unknown.

Now, their stories come to life at the Hellenic Museum of Michigan in a groundbreaking exhibition featuring original campaign prints alongside stunning works by acclaimed contemporary artist Ramona Pintea. Reclaiming history through a fresh, fearless lens, the exhibit honors and highlights the women of the Greek Revolution while speaking directly to the women of today. Through dynamic programming, cultural events, and interactive experiences, it connects the strength of 1821 to the leadership, voices, and impact of women now.

Women of all backgrounds and generations are invited to experience this inspiring tribute and rediscover their own warrior spirit.
