The Marion Art Center’s Unplugged in the MAC Gallery returns this fall w,ith two new programs scheduled in the MAC’s Patsy Francis Gallery (upstairs.) The first event is scheduled on Friday, September 15, featuring jazz duo Donn Legge (guitar) and Mike Lavoie (bass.) The second program is scheduled on Friday, November 17 and features Matt Richard (piano) and Dave Zinno (bass.) There will be two separate performances (sets) each night, and each set will last about 45 minutes. The first seating will begin at 7:00 pm and the second seating will begin at 8:15 pm.
Find a spot at a cabaret table to listen to a mix of jazz standards and original compositions by both artists. Guests will enjoy a refreshing setting at this “unplugged” performance featuring mainly acoustic sound, without the volume and density often experienced during larger concerts in the MAC Theater. Guests may bring their own beverages and snacks to enjoy in this intimate setting. Tickets for one set are just $12 for MAC members and $15 for nonmembers. Capacity is limited to approximately 25 guests per set, and advance reservations are strongly recommended. Of note: guests must access the room via a staircase leading to the second floor. There is no elevator in the building. Learn more and purchase tickets online at marionartcenter.org/events.
