'Graham Haynes is regarded as an innovator on cornet and flugel horn, an extraordinary composer, and an emerging force in contemporary electronic music and world music. Haynes has redefined and deconstructed that genre we still call jazz. Haynes used technology (and the African Dousngoni) to create imaginative, subtle sonic environments providing a level of expression that humanizes and elevates the synthetic sounds.' [All About Jazz]

Brooklyn Workshop Gallery is a semi-collective atelier space dedicated to the celebration of cultural expressions, transparency in our processes, the sharing of our philosophies and a welcome to others with creative ideas. BWG is home to Workshop Gallery Artists Foundation, a non-profit foundation whose purpose is to promote and facilitate the process of keeping traditional art craft alive and vibrant in our world and to encourage the interpretation and expression of such through the individual artisan.

This week's music coincides with a Senegalese basket exhibit sponsored by the non-profit Happy Basket Project. Come enjoy the beautiful wares of Senegal along with the art and craft of our regular exhibiting and teaching artists! View the project at www.happybasketproject.com
