Songs become paintings before your eyes in unique showcase of area talent, August 2nd @ Jammin Java

Vienna coffeehouse Jammin Java hosts hundreds of concerts throughout the year but none quite like the artist/musician collaboration happening the afternoon of August 2nd. Painting The Music brings together four area musicians and four local painters for a showcase in which the visual artist paints an entirely new work of art on stage using inspiration from the first song of the musician’s set. C becomes part of the art as audience members are encouraged to interact with musicians and artists, becoming the third arm of a creative triad. The paintings will be auctioned off during a Meet & Greet immediately following the show. Northern Virginia singer-songwriter Dan Fisk founded Painting The Music in 2012 and now the event is held as a regular performance series at different locations throughout the DMV.
