The monthly series will begin with an open mic at 7:30pm. Anyone wishing to perform music, comedy, poetry, dance or any other performing art is encouraged to participate by signing up at 7pm on the night of the show. Every effort will be made to give all a chance to perform. Featured artist Mara Levine will perform at 9pm. Open mic will resume after her set.
Si Kahn, Singer/Songwriter, Activist and Author of “Wild Rose of the Mountain” raved of Mara’s cd, “Jewelry maker Mara Levine has titled her new album Mara’s Gems. But the true gem on this debut CD is Mara herself, with her crystal clear voice, subtle vibrato, and skillful way with a melody line. The songs, strung together like the care-worn precious stones on your grandmother’s necklace, are (as a wine critic might say) rich with notes of sterling silver, amethyst, mother of pearl and smoky quartz, with a smooth, sweet finish. Like Mara’s jeweled creations, this is music lovingly crafted, and made to be worn on any occasion.”
Café ZED will take place at the NJAI studio, 495 Prospect Avenues – Essex Green on the Courtyard, just ‘follow the art’ down the walkway to the AMC Cinema entrance and turn right at the new mural into the courtyard.
7pm – 11pm. Admission $8; free for NJAI members
