Tuesdays on the Terrace Victor Garcia

About

Enjoy an evening of free music on the MCA’s Anne and John Terrace and sculpture garden with our annual summer performance series highlighting artists from Chicago’s internationally renowned jazz community.

Trumpeter Victor Garcia is equally adept at Latin music and pure improvisation. In addition to the numerous Chicago ensembles in which he performs, Garica has collaborated with a multitude of artists, including Aretha Franklin, Arturo Sandoval, Spoon, Victor Manuelle, Nicholas Payton, and the Temptations.

This performance features Garcia (trumpet), Rocky Yera (tenor sax), Dan Trudell (organ), and Greg Artry (drums).

Hosted by Al Carter-Bey, WHPK 88.5 FM

Join us for free live jazz concerts every Tuesday, June 2–September 29, 2015, 5:30 pm–8 pm.

Dine on our terrace and enjoy a buffet, which features a changing menu of themed dishes using fresh, locally grown produce from the MCA Farmers’ Market. Reserve a table by calling 312.397.3805. The buffet is $26 per person.

For a more impromptu evening, open seating is available on our terrace or bring a blanket to relax on the garden lawn. Hamburgers, house-made sausages, and a variety of freshly made salads may be purchased from our outdoor grill along with cold beverages, wine, and seasonal cocktails from the bar on the lower terrace.

In case of rain, the event takes place inside the MCA café.
