Elk Lake Interludes: A Legacy Donor Retreat (August 2-8, 2026)
Thank you for considering a charitable contribution to the Mountain Light Music Festival. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of patrons like you to nurture rising artists, sustain our celebrated faculty, and secure extraordinary performance venues that allow our music-making to thrive for generations to come.
As a legacy donor, you are invited to indulge in an exquisite, one-of-a-kind retreat at Elk Lake Lodge—a sanctuary of tranquility nestled in the pristine San Juan Mountains just outside Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Set on a private, 10-acre stocked lake and surrounded by sweeping alpine vistas, the Lodge offers an immersive blend of luxury, serenity, and artistic inspiration.
Your week-long stay will be thoughtfully tailored to you and your guest—or your family of four—featuring:
• Private chamber music performances curated exclusively for your group
• Custom-designed mountain excursions, created to match your interests and sense of adventure
• A personal chef crafting refined, seasonal culinary experiences throughout your stay
Every day at Elk Lake Lodge unfolds with opportunities to experience the mountains in ways that are entirely your own. Evenings invite quiet reflection by the fire or intimate conversation and music-making with Mountain Light Music Festival artists and friends.
You'll enjoy three private concerts from world-class artists:
The Zelter String Quartet, renowned for their expressive artistry, thoughtful interpretations, and deep commitment to the evolving landscape of chamber music.
Trio Magnoliana, Houston’s beloved piano trio, featuring violinist Mann-Wen Lo, cellist Eunghee Cho, and pianist Andrew Staupe—three distinguished University of Houston faculty artists whose collaboration radiates virtuosity and warmth.
And an unforgettable evening of operatic brilliance with Elizabeth Hanje and Luka Tsedevilze, two luminous artists from the Houston Grand Opera’s acclaimed Butler Studio.
From classical masterworks to intimate fireside moments, your experience as a legacy donor is more than a retreat—it is a profoundly personal journey into artistry, nature, and restoration, shaped entirely around you.
