Oops, I did it again. I overbooked myself this week. I couldn’t help it, there were too many fun events to choose from. Of course I’ll be at Brews and Board Games at The Windup Space on Tuesday. I’ll be attending the world premiere and opening night of PETER PAN at Single Carrot Theatre on Friday. I can’t wait to tell you all about it. Hurry up and buy your tickets! Saturday I’ll be lounging on a blanket in the grass all day enjoying the 2018 Charm City Bluegrass Festival. Sunday I snagged some tickets to a tasting of Limited Release Mezcales at Clavel. I think I counted at least five different places you can go to a Drag Brunch on Sunday so if you haven’t been to one yet, now is your chance! The weather is finally indicative of Spring so its time to get your booty out of the house!

Agnès Varda’s classic film on the historic big screen of the Parkway — for free! ABOUT THE FILM: Though married to the good-natured, beautiful Thérèse (Claire Drouot), young husband and father François (Jean-Claude Drouot) finds himself falling unquestioningly into an affair with an attractive postal worker. One of Agnès Varda’s most provocative films, LE BONHEUR examines, with a deceptively cheery palette and the spirited strains of Mozart, the ideas of fidelity and happiness in a modern, self-centered world. Agnès Varda wrote that she had envisioned the film as “a beautiful summer fruit with a worm inside.”

Michael Feinberg just released his brand new album, Whatever Possessed Me. Whatever Possessed Me demonstrates everything Feinberg loves about jazz. It’s eclectic yet specific, swinging yet searching, deep and rich, but all the while full of emotion, spirituality, and conversation between brothers. On it, Michael showcases the mature and unique sound he has already cultivated during his short time on the New York City jazz scene. As a bassist, he exemplifies total control and comfort with his craft. As a bandleader, he pushes himself and his quartet sound to dizzying heights, playing with rhythms and textures as only a bass player can know how. The result is something that is at once both polished and edgy.

Join us Saturday afternoon as we link up with our friends from IGDC for a Photo Walk after their trip to BMA. Also know that you are more than welcome to meet up with us at anytime, and the tentative schedule and route will be posted on this page soon! What is a Photo Walk you ask? A way for a bunch of us to get together, take some pictures and have a great time. Anyone is welcome, and you do not have to be a photographer to come join. Phones, Cameras, or just yourselves are more than welcome. Meet some of those artists whose work you admire or just chat with other creatives from both D.C. and Baltimore.

While DJing in Chicago, Philly, NYC, and DC, DJ Diaspora developed her eclectic blend of broken beat with Afrobeat, Latin beat, deep house, Brazilian jazz, disco, drum ‘n bass/jungle, and nujazz, with a focus on the African diaspora (which most of broken beat’s UK originators are from). DJ Diaspora has had the honor of opening for innovative artists such as Femi Kuti and the Positive Force and DJ Rekha of Basement Bhangra.

We are pleased to welcome Diane Cluck and Jabari Exum to share a bill together!

DIANE CLUCK (Charlottesville, VA) is a singer-songwriter of intuitive folk music. She tours the US, UK and Europe, employing singing as a healing, textural experience in which audiences may wander, ponder, or simply be.

JABARI EXUM (Baltimore) is a skilled percussionist in the West African/Latin tradition, a prolific writer and performer, and a pioneering artist in the “Hip-Hop Theater” movement. He has been acting, drumming, and rapping since the age of two, and was the tribal dance and movement coach for the recent sci-fi fantasy film “Black Panther”.
