Over the years the Friends have
funded a number of enhancements
to the Conservatory including the
docent education program that provides
trained interpreters for school
group tours and weekend visitors
to the Conservatory.
In 2000 a new west wing was completed
and funded in part by the Friends
through a community-wide capital
campaign. The Center provides improved
public spaces for Conservatory
programs and rental opportunities
including a multi-purpose facility
dedicated to Elvira Rubinstein,
a FOPCON founder.
Currently, the Friends are creating
an audio tour of the Conservatory
supported by the Oak Park and River
Forest Community Foundation and
have double matched a State of
Illinois grant to finance the renovation
of the Conservatory’s Fern
Room.
We have much more to do to ensure
the future of the Conservatory
and the educational programs FOPCON
provides. We rely on ongoing donations
and volunteer support. Please consider
a tax-deductible gift today - and
have an impact on all those who
visit the Conservatory now and
in the future.
