The 'Alice Coltrane, Monument Eternal' exhibition showcases the influential life of the renowned jazz musician Alice Coltrane. As a pioneer in both music and spirituality, Alice's impact extends beyond her compositions into her profound philosophical explorations.

This collaborative effort with the John & Alice Coltrane Home marks a pivotal moment in recognizing her contributions to jazz and art history. Engaging discussions and planned events during the exhibit’s run aim to attract a diverse audience, from seasoned jazz aficionados to newcomers exploring Alice's multifaceted legacy. Mark your calendars for this enriching experience that not only celebrates art but also invites reflection on personal growth and the enduring influence of one extraordinary woman in jazz history.
