We invite you to join us on May 20th, 2021, at 7PM ET, for Ars Nova Workshop’s annual fundraiser!

This energizing event will honor Marshall Allen, artistic director of the Sun Ra Arkestra, with Charlie Hall, drummer with the Grammy Award winning War on Drugs, as MC. The hour-long program will feature a very special performance by Yo La Tengo, a special appearance by composer and bassist William Parker, along with pre-recorded video tributes to Marshall Allen by several luminaries of jazz and experimental music.
