HOUSE OF MIRRORS Concert 3, Mar. 22, 7:30pm featuring Maria Jette and Kathryn Bennett

I am very excited to announce the next concert in the HOUSE OF MIRRORS Concert Series, which will feature two brilliant classical musicians ~ soprano Maria Jette and violinist Kathryn Bennett.

We've still got snow here in Minnesota but that doesn't stop us from making awesome music! Come hear two new HOUSE OF MIRRORS improvisational compositions written especially for Maria and Kate to perform in the sound world of the installation. This will be a special evening you won't want to miss.

Joe Sanchelli, who lived in Swede Hollow in the 20's and 30's will also be sharing his stories, and of course there'll be plenty of good food and Lift Bridge Beer from up river.
