Pearl Django Concert @ Jansen Art Center

Feb 10 @ 7:30 pm
Pearl Django Concert @ Jansen Art Center | Lynden | Washington | United States

Back by popular demand, Pearl Django returns to the Firefly Concert Series at the Jansen Art Center on Saturday, February 10 at 7:30 p.m.

With a performance history spanning more than two decades, Pearl Django endures as one of the most highly regarded Hot Club style groups working today. Although the band’s roots are firmly in the music made famous by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli, its extensive repertoire includes traditional jazz classics and original compositions. Pearl Django has performed at festivals, dances and nightspots throughout the U.S. and abroad. They have played at the prestigious Festival Django Reinhardt in Samois sur Seine and have been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered. The band’s signature style is marked by pristine and dexterous string work, colors of Bal Musette, the steady pulse of rhythm guitar and an unmistakable swing that delights audiences of all musical sensibilities. Throughout the years, Pearl Django has cultivated a devoted and enthusiastic following and they continue to play to packed houses wherever they perform.
Tickets are $25.00 and are available at the Jansen Art Center or online at www.jansenartcenter.org.

Tickets
Jun 17 @ 10:00 am – 10:30 am

Join us for a casual day of disc golf at Bellingham’s newest free-to-play public disc golf course!

Very short speech and comically large scissors for ribbon cutting ceremony at 10:10!
Far from Par will have the shop set up, and will be handing out a FREE MVP disc to the first 60 attendees.

Although the course is looking awesome already, there is still new garbage showing up …

If you bring a bag of garbage back at the end of your round, you can turn it in for 20% off your purchase of any discs with Far from Par for the day. (If you aren’t in the market for anything new, then you’ll just get a fist bump from Matt and Daisey and course karma!)
Come celebrate and experience Bellis Fairways with us!
