ORGANIZATIONS EVOLUTIONARY JOURNEYS ONGOING DIALOGUE EXPLORATION TESTING IDEAS ENDURING COLLABORATIONS SHARING KNOWLEDGE EDUCATION PROSPERITY and HOPE Annual Report
LLOYD A. FRY FOUNDATION 35YEARS HUNDREDS OF ORGANIZATIONS EVOLUTIONARY JOURNEYS ONGOING DIALOGUE EXPLORATION TESTING IDEAS ENDURING COLLABORATIONS SHARING KNOWLEDGE EDUCATION PROSPERITY AND HOPE Annual Report FOR 2018 ALL CHICAGO For the past 35 years, the Fry Foundation has supported hundreds of organizations that improve the lives of low-income, underserved Chicagoans. This year’s Annual Report highlights 15 of the Foundation’s longest-term grantees across our four funding areas: Arts Learning, Education, Employment and Health. The organizations within these pages share more than longevity. They share an ability to evolve. While they all have served more and more individuals over time, they not only have gotten bigger, they also have gotten better. They thoughtfully adjust their strategies to respond to new information and new challenges, whether that’s an increase in demand or a decrease in public funding. They strengthen the services they provide, continually addressing the complex, changing needs of Chicago students, workers and patients. As a result, these 15 grantees have become exemplars within their fields. Others now look to them and learn. The Fry Foundation has long supported these grantees on their evolutionary journeys. The Foundation has been in ongoing dialogue with them, helping them to expand, to partner with other organizations, to explore cutting-edge methods and technologies, and to identify new opportunities and take advantage of them. “We have had many conversations with the program officers at the Fry Foundation not just about the grants but about the work in our field. We value the Fry Foundation as a partner,” says Christina Warden of Women Employed—echoing the ways that the Fry Foundation’s grantees often speak of its enduring collaborations with them.

Deep Into the Darkness Peering… a Night of Edgar A
Contact: Annelise Lawson Marketing Associate 312.704.8420 x 213 [email protected] DEEP INTO THE DARKNESS PEERING… A NIGHT OF EDGAR A. POE AND PHILIP GLASS COT AT UNCOMMON GROUND, NOVEMBER 11TH AT 8 PM Chicago, IL (Oct. 31st, 2012) – On the evening of Sunday, November 11th, peer deep into the darkness with Chicago Opera Theater (COT) as they host a deliciously eerie night of Edgar Allan Poe and Philip Glass performances at Chicago’s popular Uncommon Ground on Clark Street. The one‐night engagement will be the first in a series of events in anticipation of General Director Andreas Mitisek’s inaugural 2013 season – POWER OF LOVE, LOVE OF POWER. “Just like the artists and designers, the audience is a crucial part of every production,” said Mitisek. “We want to give our audiences new ways to broaden their experiences and explore the themes of our operas before opening night.” A collaboration with Uncommon Ground and Chicago’s LifeLine Theater, Deep into Darkness Peering… will be an opportunity for a first glimpse into what COT’s 2013 season has to offer. The evening’s program will consist of a selection from Philip Glass’ “The Fall of the House of Usher” – opening at the Harris Theater in Millennium Park on February 23rd ‐ performed by COT artists Leila Bowie, Scott Brunscheen, and Adam Hendrickson accompanied by Mitisek himself. Guests will also be treated to dramatic readings of Poe favorites – including “The Raven” and “The Cask of Amontillado” by actors from Chicago’s LifeLine Theater. Space for this not‐to‐be‐missed event is limited.

New City Stage Players 2015-The
Theater, Dance, Comedy and Performance in Chicago JAN 22 Players 2015: The Fifty People Who Really Perform for Chicago The steady expansion of the performing arts in Chicago continues its marvelous pace, with more and better theater, dance, comedy and opera gracing more and better stages each passing year. The upward progression is so steady that epic undertakings—a new campus at Steppenwolf, a bigger chunk of Navy Pier for Chicago Shakes—seem almost business as usual these days. And that is a marvelous thing. This year we again celebrat the lesser‐sung heroes offstage who deal with the less glamorous things like building those new stages, and paying those expanding payrolls withou which the stars would have nowhere to shine. Tragedy has been central to theater since the ancient Greeks first staged it, but the last year has brought a disproportionate volume of real‐ life tragedy to our community. No doubt, the expanding and maturing performing arts universe means that more members of its community will pass o each year, but the number of those struck down long before their expected hour was overwhelming these last twelve months and struck every corner of performing arts, from theater, to dance, to comedy, to opera. Molly Glynn, Jason Chin, Eric Eatherly, Bernie Yvon, Johan Engels, Julia Neary—and others we’ve unintentionally overlooked—we dim our collective marquee for you.

About the Ensemble
Welcome to today’s performance presented by members of Chicago Sinfonietta. Founded by Paul Freeman in 1987, Chicago Sinfonietta is the nation’s most diverse and innovative orchestra. We perform in downtown Chicago and Naperville from September through May and invite you to join us for a full symphony experience! Today’s program is a celebration of music created by the greatest Hispanic composers in history and the rich cultures that inspired them. We hope you enjoy this unique musical journey! ABOUT THE ENSEMBLE Karla Galva, violin, was born and raised in Chicago. Daughter of a Dominican father and East-Indian Trinidadian mother, she studied at the DePaul University Community Music Division, Carnegie Mellon University, and the University of Maryland. Karla’s diverse portfolio of performances include soloing with the Annapolis Symphony and Southwest Symphony, collaborations with artists as far ranging as Emanuel Ax and Harry Connick Jr., and various runs on Broadway in Chicago. After completing the Paul Freeman Orchestral Fellowship with Chicago Sinfonietta, she won a seat as a full member of the orchestra’s first violin section. James Sanders, violin, crosses stylistic borders yet stays true to both the jazz violin legacy and his rigorous classical training, earning a master’s degree in performance from Yale University. While he quickly landed a seat in the Chicago Sinfonietta (which he still holds), a chance encounter with jazz violin legend Johnny Frigo changed his approach to music forever. Drawing on his Dominican heritage, Sanders formed the Latin jazz ensemble James Sanders’ Conjunto in 2001. His latest project is called The Dark Matter String Band that explores the idea of early 20th Century African American string band music in a 21st century context.
