----COME HAVE A GANDER, STAY FOR A JAM!
The Gander Jam is a groove-centered improv jam on the first and third Wednesday of every month. We begin the night with a featured act at 8:30pm to showcase local talent, acts range solo solo folk to punk bands to jazz trios and more! Then after that the jams begin at 9pm, instrumentalists and vocalists and more are rotated throughout the night to create new sounds and interact in this musical playground. Expression and creativity are nourished in an uplifting space. All intruments and voices are welcome!
*** if you don't sing or play an instrument, the dance floor always has roomm for one more goose!
