punk jam (starts 1/19/26)
Third Mondays 8 - 10 PM
Feeling Punk? Wanna jam with the house band? Or just listen and rock out? What to expect—
“House band” hosts the evening (drums, guitar lead , guitar rhythm, bass, and vocals.) Jammers sign up choosing a song or two at a time, listing their role (instrument and/or vocals). Once we get through all the jammers, if there is time, you may be able to sign up for another song. You are welcome to bring your own instrument but we'll have the standard ones available: One drum set, a bass, guitars, and mics/stands are provided. Bongos/hand drums also available.
Bring an inclusive spirit for this fun and safe space.
Model a growth mindset that supports all levels, ages, gender expressions and stages.
Celebrate rather than tear down. That includes about yourself! Keep rocking. No apologies on mistakes!
sunday jazz jam w/ Jeff Wood
Sundays from 4:00 - 5:30 PM
Open to musicians of all ages and abilities, the Sunday Jazz Jam is a perfect way to run through standard charts in a low-key, laid-back setting. We provide the music so everyone can follow along. We choose 2-3 "tunes of the month" so everyone has a chance to dig deep into a few specific tunes that we'll all get to know well. Then we open it up for suggestions, bring your favorite tune or learn something new! $5 suggested donation.
