908 Main St.
We all know it as the place for House Concerts, but now the space has been renovated to become a venue that music schools can rent for performance and recitals. It’s a ’club’ atmosphere with stage, lighting and PA system and makes for a great opportunity for students to get out and perform. Invite family and friends, without having to book a regular music club. This is an intimate venue that seats about 35.
The next House Concert will be November 14 featuring the Brad Upton Quintet with Brad Upton, trumpet, Eric Gunnison, piano, Steve Kovalchek, guitar, Bijoux Barbosa, bass, Matt Houston, drums. Limited seating so RSVP early. Contact MaryLynn: 303.507.2824 or portraitart@mxvphoto.com
