  • You can’t listen to a painting or see a song, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t really interesting places where the worlds of jazz and art overlap. We’ll explore jazz’s connection to the arts with a look at the criss-crossing paths of jazz and the visual arts with Dr. Robert O’Meally, discussing how the worlds of art and music collided during the Harlem Renaissance, explore the life and art of the jazz painter Romare Bearden, and take a look at the life and work of iconic jazz photographer William Gottlieb.
