“Magician/raconteur Sean Masterson and his eye-popping,

mind-boggling parlor tricks.” Lawrence Bommer, The Chicago Reader,

“He manages to unlock secret doors in the mind so that it is possible to revel, without questioning, in the mysteries of the unknown.” Nancy Maas, The Chicago Tribune

Edward Perraud stops at Colvin House while on tour with The Bridge — “a transatlantic network for jazz and creative music.” Edward is a native of Brittany. His percussion playing is influenced by a range of musical forms: classical, contemporary, jazz, free improvisation and Indian Hindustani tablas. For the past 20 years, he has criss-crossed the Atlantic playing with dozens of musicians throughout the Americas and Europe.

The Chicago landmark Colvin House --built in 1909 by George Maher--is now the home of Creative Coworking: a shared workspace.
