About St. Timothy's Lutheran Church

SPECIAL ADDITION

St. Tim's Coffeehouse is delighted to present Bonnie Koloc in a celebratory concert on December 13, 2025. Bonnie is a legend on the Chicago folk scene and almost doesn't need introduction. Her recent induction to the Illinois Hall of Fame this past September is among the most recent awards she has received throughout her illustrious career.

This concert has been added to the St. Tim's Coffeehouse schedule. It is not a part of the Folkstage programming and will not be broadcast or livestream. Only Folkstage members and St. Tim's Concert Series Subscribers will receive reserved seating.

This event celebrates our nine and a half years at this location. At this concert, we plan to announce where our new home will be when we resume on February 14, 2026 with Naomi Ashley and Jon Williams. There will be cake and merriment as we close the doors here in Skokie, IL. Don't miss your chance to hear a legend and help us say "so long".

We anticipate this concert will be sold out without tickets available at the door. Here's where to purchase your tickets now:
