Who we are!First Events was founded in 2018 as a community outreach made possible by the First Lutheran Foundation of Janesville, and utilizes creative arts programming that uplifts and inspires community throughout Janesville and Southern Wisconsin. While the indoor and outdoor grounds of First Lutheran often serve as an ideal venue for events large and small, our programming and initiatives are designed to offer compelling and enriching programming for all in our community, regardless of background or faith. First Events is proud to partner with the Beloit-Janesville Symphony Orchestra, Turtle Creek Chamber Orchestra, Academy Singers, Badger Chordhawks and many other community performing arts groups.What we do!First Events is designed from the ground up with community in mind. Our events serve as fundraisers for community initiatives such as after-school programming in Janesville's 4th Ward, Healthnet of Rock County, and many others.
