CAM Spotlight: 13th Season of Jazz at CAM |
We are thrilled to announce the 2023-2024 season of Jazz at CAM showcasing the best of local and regional jazz. The series, focusing on this uniquely American art form, takes place the first Thursday evening at 7 PM of each month beginning in September and continuing through April 2024.
Lucky number 13! The 13th season of Jazz at CAM kicks off on Thursday, September 7 at 7 PM when Rahsaan Barber and Everyday Magic take the stage with their mix of jazz, blues, funk, classical, fusion, soul, Latin, and world music. The season wraps in a big way when The Wilmington Big Band brings their 17-piece orchestra to CAM on Thursday, April 2, 2024. |
"The artists coming to CAM are bringing incredible new music, such as Journeywoman, released this year by Lenora Zenzalai Helm, and a new suite written and recorded by Rahsaan Barber. And Doug Irving is diving into local archives to bring us the story and music of local jazz legends Cynthia and Rudy Tyson. We have a great season of music ahead." - September Krueger, CAM's Director of Lifelong Learning |

Cornelio Campos is a self-taught Mexican-American artist based in Durham, NC. Mr. Campos immigrated to the United States from Mexico as a teenager—a journey and process that now influence many of his paintings. Vibrant colors, iconic American symbols, and intricate geometric patterns define Mr. Campos’s work. Through his paintings, he illustrates some of the harsh realities of immigrating to America that immigrants often overlook. Moreover, he highlights deep-seated political issues that contribute to Mexican immigration, including the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement. |
