In response to Mr. Ramm's beautiful slide show...

The Felix E. Grant Jazz Archives would like to invite all conference

attendees to visit our renovated facility. The Archives is conveniently

located on Metro's Red Line at the Van Ness­UDC stop on the campus of the

University of the District of Columbia, 4200 Connecticut Avenue, NW.



The curator, Judith Korey, is a panelist on the Saturday, May 30, 2009 11:15

program: "Repertoire & Artists: Jazz Radio in Washington, DC - Jazz in DC,

On the Air: A Tribute to Felix Grant"

 

This is a unique opportunity to view the namesake of jazz radio personality

Felix Grant, host of 'The Album Sound' radio program for nearly 30 years.



In an effort to accommodate all ARSC attendees the Archives will have

extended hours. Please RSVP to jazzarchives@xxxxxxxx, the time and number of

people. We will try to accommodate ALL requests.

In  prep for the conference I wanted to share some of the great things I 
saw in  October while in DC for the Fall Board Meeting. This is a VERY short 
slide show  of the images. These may be places you didn't know about and the 
photos may  encourage you to visit them. 

Hope you enjoy. (By the way. the music  choice was not mine but I think is 
bearable).
