The College of Fine Arts/Clark County partnership continues at 7 p.m. on March 20 with the Joe Williams Trio, featuring Adam Schroeder and Gary Fowler, at the Composers Showroom located in historic Commercial Center, 953 E. Sahara Ave. The event is free and open to the public.

This vibrant new arts series brings together a combination of talent, creativity, and passion for jazz. Comprised of accomplished musicians from UNLV’s Jazz and Commercial Music division, a trio of talented music professionals will showcase the rich traditions of the genre while pushing boundaries with innovative arrangements and daringly original new compositions.

Reservations can be made by visiting the Composers Room website.

Arts in the Center will feature a varied array of music, visual arts, film and theatre events through June 5, all of which are free and open to the public (reservations may be required).

Among the selections during its inaugural season will be evenings of jazz featuring the UNLV Joe Williams Quintet, an environmentally-based and arts-focused program, a comedy night, the immersive theatre experience Parking Lot Plays, and a screening of a new documentary about Historic Commercial Center.

Arts in the Center is the first public demonstration of a new partnership that has been forged between Clark County and UNLV’s College of Fine Arts. Its purpose is to expand the reach of arts programming created at UNLV while providing free quality arts programming to the community at large.
