Presented by the Coast Cultural Alliance in partnership with the Sunshine Coast Arts Council. We look forward to seeing you!
This, the last Artesia Coffee House of the season, will be happening again in the Doris Crowston Gallery of the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre in Sechelt, on Friday, May 9th at 7:30pm with doors opening at 6:45pm. Tickets are $20, available from Eventbrite, the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre (Wed-Sun, noon-4pm) or at the door. Delectable treats and beverages will be on offer, with donations graciously accepted.
The beautiful grand piano will be making an appearance being played in the opening set by young musicians, 15-year-old Taho Shinagawa playing classical selections, and 17-yr old Daniel Claudepierre with songs of his own arrangements plus some new compositions.
Next up is a Saxophone Quartet formed in 2024 based on the theory if one is great then four must be fantastic! This melodic and sometimes excitable group is comprised of Graham Ord, Karen Graves, Ken Grunenberg, and Jack Davis.
After a brief intermission, Michael Gurney, local promoter of the local art scene and public speaker, will be reading some of his original poetry.
To close the night and a powerful way to end the 2025 Artesia season will be the soul-baring voice of Kiki Connelly and the Understory with Anna Lumiere on grand piano and James Meger on upright bass offering gorgeous soul and R&B tunes.
A big thank you to all our 2025 musicians, volunteers, and audience for another amazing series of the Artesia Coffee House and we will see you again in the early months of 2026.
Doors open at 6:45 pm, show at 7:30 pm. Tickets are $20 and available for purchase in advance online via Eventbrite or in-person at the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre during public gallery hours (Wed-Sun, 12-4pm, 5714 Medusa Street, Sechelt).
Delicious treats and beverages will also be available, with donations kindly accepted.
