The jazz loft will be closed for the month of January. We will reopen in February.
In light of recent NYS changes to COVID guidelines and out of an abundance of caution for our patrons, the Jazz Loft kindly reminds all guests that wearing a mask when moving about the museum and performance space is required. We also ask that patrons please practice social distancing, practice practical sanitation procedures, and any other safe gathering guidelines in place at the time of the program. Similar to dining experiences guests are welcome to remove their mask once seated at their table for performance events although we encourage guests to remain masked at all times. Thank you!
