Join us for Jam House with host Jeanne Marie Farinelli. A talented saxophonist and Milwaukee educator, she regularly performs with local jazz groups. Her music blends modern influences with traditional jazz, creating a soulful and unique approach to improvisation. She is returning to Jam House after hosting last year, and we are so excited to have her back!

Jam House is free and open to all.  Doors open at 6:30 PM, and the music starts at 7 PM.  These jams are open to all ages and genders, offering a welcoming space for music lovers of every background.

Join us on Gallery Night for the second annual Legacy Exhibition Opening Celebration. All are welcome to participate in a variety of interactive installations highlighting the creativity of amazing artist-educators. We’ll showcase student art from a variety of Milwaukee classrooms, along with legacy artifacts created within our community center. To the soundtrack of Jam House recordings, we’ll feature art from our Summer Camp, A.I.R. academy, Career Development, and Artist in Residence programs. This year’s exhibition will celebrate photography from our new artist support project: Nurture. As always, Green Baked Goods will make the night even better with their culinary creations.  Free and open to all in the community.

Outside of building tours, guests will have the chance to dive into a variety of creative family friendly activities, while learning about our efforts to make the arts accessible to everyone through our diverse programming.
