Don Prell + Dan Richman + Macy Blackman + Bill Vartnaw

Friday, May 4 to Monday, May 7

Bassist Don Prell's Seabop Ensemble

every Friday,

This week: Don Prell’s Seabop Ensemble.

Sunday at 2pm, Dan Richman considers the phenomenon of “enclosure”… the loss of the commons, the building of borders, fences and walls around the world we once inhabited together;
