We hosted a fantastic concert in March with a jazz ensemble group from Chicago called Loom, lead by bassist Matt Ulery. The concert featured all of Ulery's original compositions that were written especially for the group. I was pleasantly surprised at the open mindedness of the audience for new music, and many of the regular attendees commented that this was their favorite concert of the year so far!
The art showing was also a beautiful match with the colorful abstract oil painting of Eric Picardo, a Grand Rapids based artist originally from the Dominican Republic.
Thanks to BLC for the lovely reception and to Kirby Hanson for the photos.
