Jam House

Jam House is back on April 12 from 7-9 PM!

Doors: 6:30pm
Jam: 7pm-9pm

Piano, amp, PA, and drums provided!

Hosted by Jeanne Marie Farinelli and Friends, this Open Jam removes the barrier between stage and audience. Jeanne is an MPS Music teacher at Bayview Montessori and she performs regularly with jazz groups throughout Milwaukee.

Anyone in the crowd can go from an audience member to the featured performer while creating songs on stage that are then recorded and given to them the week after the show.

Come create and collaborate with some of our city’s best musicians and create music on the spot.

Jam House is more than an open mic with a live backing band; it is a vibrant community space where musicians and artists of all skill levels collaborate to create original music together.

All jams are recorded at Arts @ Large and given to everyone that plays!

Thank you to Joy Engine for making this program possible.

Join Jeanne Marie Farinelli and Friends 2/9, 3/8, 4/12, 5/10 and 6/7!
