Bailey Contemporary Arts in Pompano Beach Bringing A Taste of Jazz to You June 11, 2020

Pompano Beach
Arts Goes Virtual!

Thursday, June 11, 2020 ~ 7-9pm
A Taste of Jazz
Home Edition: Origins of The Electric Guitar
LIVE STREAM LINK at
https://www.facebook.com/BaCAPompano
More Info at:
https://www.PompanoBeachArts.org/programs

On the 2nd Thursday of each month, we traditionally invite guests 
to join us at the Bailey Contemporary Arts to be entertained by
Martin Hand and musicians of the Gold Coast Jazz Society, while
tasting new wines curated by a local purveyor. Tonight, while we
cannot supply the wine as we typically do, we can still bring
you the music! So pour your own glass of wine and press play as 
Martin Hand invites us into his home to learn about the history of the
jazz guitar, providing some fascinating insights and great rhythms.

“A Taste of Jazz is a fun way to learn more about the celebrated
musical genre without feeling intimidated or overwhelmed,” said
Jody Leshinsky, Cultural Venues Programming Manager. “So many
 people want to learn more about this original American art form but
do not know where to begin. We created this event series for them!”

Jazz & Blues Florida June Edition NOT Posted - A Non-Issue


Truly, a non-issue.

As with any business, Jazz & Blues Florida cannot operate with expenses only. With major music events in Florida cancelling as far out as November, no margins from online shows for artists to afford promotion, limited capacity in venues, and uncertainty about the social fabric of our country holding together, there is not a place for Jazz & Blues Florida to extract a slice from the cash-flow in a manner that provides value to our clients and meets our operating needs. Rather than spend the business – and 14 years of hard work – out of existence, we are putting our monthly magazine in cover-only mode starting now. Our website will be re-vamped to reduce operating costs and to see if it is feasible to include online shows in listings. Our email and blog services will continue as requested by clients, and the social media will be as active as can be afforded. We will continue to operate in this manner until either the scene turns around or until we can no longer even afford to operate at this level. We'll keep you posted. Good will prevail, but not without the active support of good people.
