Celebrate Women’s History Month and a century of women in jazz as Wingspan brings a program of all-women jazz composers at 7 p.m., Friday, March 8, to the Woman’s Club of Albany, 725 Madison Ave, Albany, N.Y. 12208.

This free program is arranged by the Albany Musicians Association and sponsored by the Music Performance Trust Fund. Wingspan is a jazz quintet.

The performance will be held in the upstairs ballroom of the WCA and followed by a reception on the first floor. Please note that the second floor of the building is not ADA accessible.

According to WCA President Monica Trabold, “this event is a wonderful way for the Woman’s Club to open its doors to the community in celebration of women’s history and great music.”

The Woman’s Club of Albany is a non-profit organization founded in 1910 to improve conditions for women and children in Albany. The club continues that mission today, providing philanthropic and hands-on support to other non-profit groups throughout the Capital Region.

The WCA is the owner/steward of the Madison Avenue house built in 1895 for Albany clothier Joseph Steefel and his wife Hattie. The house is used for club gatherings and for community programs open to the public, and is available as a rental venue. For more information, please visit www.womansclubofalbany.com.
