Building on the success of the inaugural four events, the new series aims to foster community and revitalize downtown Buffalo through a fusion of art and jazz.
JazzBuffalo and The Hunt Art Gallery are thrilled to announce the launch of the Art Meets Jazz Fall Series, expanding upon the tremendous experience of the inaugural series. This unique blend of art and jazz will continue to bring together Buffalo’s thriving cultural community while enhancing the revitalization efforts of downtown Buffalo.
The series kicks off with internationally renowned Tango vocalist from Argentina, Carlos Habiague on September 18, promising to enchant the audience with his passionate voice and world-class artistry. On October 16, the dynamic strings ensemble Vibrant Strings will take the stage, bringing an energetic and soulful performance to the series. Emerging jazz vocalist Vanessa Vacanti will captivate audiences with her refreshing talent on November 20, and to close out the year, a special presentation of “A Charlie Brown Christmas” on December 18 will add a nostalgic touch to the festive season.
Set in the heart of downtown Buffalo, at the Hunt Art Gallery and Beebe’s at the Gallery, this series is designed to offer a one-of-a-kind experience. The events will feature not only incredible jazz performances but also curated art exhibitions, fostering a sense of community through the celebration of music and visual art.
