From the stage to the community, Art Point is brought to you by C&B Productions. Art Point is a new series of concerts and workshops that showcase local and internationally acclaimed artists, who will share their original material and inspire the audience with details behind the mastery of their playing — creating a space for everyone to interact and connect with their culture! This second concert features Anibal Cruz's The Blue Island Project, accompanied by amazing musicians Gerson Lazon (Bass), Milena Casado (Trumpet), and Ivana Cuesta (Drums). The Blue Island Project showcases original music and arrangements, combining Afro-Cuban and Brazilian Rhythms, Gospel, and Jazz. This project exposes the audience to various cultural backgrounds, embracing their own diversity through music.


We hope you can join us and support this live performance, followed by a short workshop to explore the music and the dance movements it evokes and a Q&A.
