Operation ELEVATE!
When the world gives us lemons, let’s make lemonade.
Let there be MUSIC!
Operation ELEVATE! was born out of a desire to add some beauty back into our everyday. It was envisioned in the darkest days of Covid, but remains relevant today. Our beloved city is not thriving. Businesses and property owners are struggling. As a community, can we add some light back into our city, joy into the everyday and hope into the dark? We have nothing to lose, so let’s give it a try.
Let’s bring delight to our downtown.
The City of Music.
Music has the potential to transport the human spirit; it can raise up the ordinary and bring beauty to the streets. The auditory experience of our city is a blank canvas. Let’s collectively tap into the Mozart Effect and bring the Classics to the City.
Let’s embrace our streetscape.
The City of Senses.
Our sensory experience of our city is an untapped avenue of potential activation. What we hear as humans in a space impacts us. Let’s use common sense to elevate our audible experience and see if it helps sooth the city.
Let’s elevate the soundscape.
The City of Hope.
Classical music elevates the spirit and grounds the soul. It acts as a calming backdrop to the everyday. Let’s offer a little bit of hope to our lives through a collective effort to play the classics throughout our downtown.
*Re-LAUNCHING DECEMBER 2025 - Stay tuned for more information on how to enjoy the music + play along with us.
