Levy Senior Center Foundation 

The Levy Senior Center Foundation, Inc. (LSCF) supports the Levy Center in so many ways! LSCF purchases equipment to enhance programs, subsidizes several programs, maintains the Center's garden and brings area students to perform at the Fran Randall Memorial Concert Series.

The LSCF is currently sponsoring a lecture series.  Click here to view the Fall 2018 Lecture Series.  

The Levy Senior Center Foundation has created a new music series for all ages that will delight the entire Evanston community! The Jamming Jean Music Series, named in honor of a former Levy Center member, will feature music and musicians that reflect Evanston and its cultural diversity. Bring the entire family for a fun way to kick off the weekend. Concerts are free and open to all.

The Levy Senior Center Foundation is proud to continue to bring the talents of young, award-winning classical musicians to the Levy Senior Center for the Fran Randall Concerts. The outstanding lineup continues to honor the memory of Fran Randall who loved classical music and played an important role in opening the current center.

Courtyard

The building’s architects designed the Levy Senior Center around an open courtyard in order to create a bright and close-to-nature feeling.

The Hulda B. and Maurice L. Rothschild Enabling Garden in the central courtyard (pictured at right), was made possible by a major grant from the Hulda B. and Maurice L. Rothschild Foundation. Some classes and special events are held in the courtyard, weather permitting.

Interested in the Olympics

The Levy Senior Center is home to both the Illinois Women’s and Men's Senior Olympics Basketball Teams. If you are interested in playing (they are looking for women and men age 55+), please call the Center for more information at 847-448-8250.
