Take a step back in time to the splendor of the Harlem Renaissance through The Montey Café Experience. Named after Dixwell’s Monterery Cafe, where legendary jazz performers including Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, Charles Parker and John Coltrane graced the stage alongside local giants, this first installment of the Renaissance Rhythms series brings together live music, discussion, and refined revelry to honor the captivating history of the Harlem Renaissance and the thriving jazz scene of New Haven.The evening features performances by Cliff & Friends Trio, and members of The Monk Family. Before we break in our dancing shoes, one of the highlights of the night is a lively panel discussion about the past, present and future of jazz.
Come dressed in the style and glamour of the Harlem Renaissance, and enjoy complimentary food and drinks alongside community and live music!
Free admission. RSVP required.
