Fall Concert Matinee November 15th 2PM! 

There’s something special about this time of year. I love the fall and the change it brings- wearing my cozy clothes, the glorious scarlet and orange leaves, the shorter days and longer nights. I love the way the moon looks on a cool autumn night, the starting of the rains, the way fall evenings smell of damp leaves, pumpkin spice, seeing migrating bird visitors, a crisp fresh apple, warm food and beverages…..

Fall is also the perfect time to see  and experience great live jazz in an intimate theater setting!

We invite you to come join us on Sunday, November 15th at 2PM for a special matinee fall jazz concert celebrating this special season. Featuring Grammy Nominee Jazz Vocalist Carla Helmbrecht, we will be performing a variety of fall-themed jazz songs that are sure to get you in a festive autumn mood! 

Tickets are $25 and are still available; please go to:
