Marotta Hour
Matt Weston

wasteland jazz unitThursday, October 15th
7 to 8pm

Stay downtown after work every third Thursday of the month and check out new sounds curated by local musician and international composer Larry Marotta.

Weston plays a blend of percussion and electronics, earning praise from publications such as The Wire and The Village Voice.  Weston has performed throughout the United States and Europe as a member of the Arthur Brooks Ensemble V, Barn Owl, with guitarist Chris Cooper and bassist Andy Crespo, and as a guitarist for Thrillpillow.  Weston's wide range of performance and collaborative experience augment his already original sound.

Free and open to all.

This event is part of our after-work programing offered Thursday evenings. After the show stop by Tip Top Kitchen & Cocktails and ask for the Urban Artists' Special: It's very special indeed and it's only $3.

Tactile Color showcases the artwork of SallyB, who creates touchable fabric interpretations of master works, bringing the two-dimensional art world directly into the hands of the viewer.  The project began as a way to bring significant artworks to the blind or those with low vision, but has become a genuine example of universal design and a wonderful experience for everyone.

On display are several of SallyB's pieces, including interpretations of Van Gogh, Joan Miró, and Franz Marc. Viewers are free to explore the works alone or with a guided tour.
