We hold the events on Sunday afternoons and charge an admission fee of $15 (only $5 for students). The concert by the featured artist runs from 4-6 PM, and it's followed by an open jam session from 6-7 PM. Any instrumentalists and singers in the audience are invited to sit in. We always select a venue that offers food and drink.
