On June 30th, Sistas' Place as we have known it at 456 Nostrand Avenue, will close its doors and move down the street to the corner of Nostrand and Jefferson. Renovations on the new site have already begun!
On Saturday, June 27th at 9 and 10:30pm, the last two concerts at the old address, 456 Nostrand Avenue, will feature some of the great artists who have helped to make Sistas' Place an internationally known institution. These artists will play together in bands the combination of which has never been heard before. These final two concerts of musical greats at the old location will act as a fundraiser and a closure for the site that helped to formulate the idea of Jazz: A Music of the Spirit!
Minimum Donation for each set is $30! Tax Deductible Donations for the renovation can be sent to 456 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn NY, 11216 c/o Code Foundation.
