A national treasure, the remarkably versatile Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis is a generational institution in music and the related arts. And our 20th anniversary season would only be complete with a return engagement by the baddest big band in the land and the very first Presenting Series artist! Kicking off our programming on September 19, 2004, returning in 2008, and again for our 10th anniversary season in 2014, you know we're all in this for a swingin' time. With Artistic Director Wynton Marsalis, 15 of the finest jazz soloists and ensemble players today perform music from the genre's most significant composers and performers, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Miles Davis, Max Roach, and more. Every Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performance is an incredible event full of energy and bristling with life — where the music is woven as deeply into the fabric of this phenomenal ensemble as into America. Let's celebrate 20 years coming full circle with Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis. Made possible by the Edward DeBartolo, Jr. Excellence Fund. https://performingarts.nd.edu/event/17112/jazz-at-lincoln-center/

Join us for Open Studio, a monthly drop-in program designed to help you connect with your creative side. This program encourages participants to engage—in guided or freestyle ways—with materials inspired by the themes, techniques, and media of a featured work of art. This season, we’ll focus on Ephiphanic Mass (Epitaph) by Julie Mehretu. Each month there will be a different project, allowing for new ways to connect with this work. Our Studio Host will be available to guide you through the month’s project or support you in your own creative endeavors. All materials are provided. Drop in when you can and stay as long as you like. https://raclinmurphymuseum.nd.edu/visit/events/2025/02/02/open-studio-2/
