Saline Area Players present 12 Angry Jurors
2026-02-22 14:00 - 15:30 | The Well Church, 211 Willis Rd, Saline, M, 48176, United States
12 Angry Jurors, directed by Veronica Long, runs February 20th-March 1st at The Well Church in Saline. 12 Angry Jurors was adapted by Sherman L. Sergel, based on the teleplay Twelve Angry Men by Reginald Rose.
◈ SYNOPSIS ◈ Following the closing arguments in a murder trial, the twelve members of the jury must deliberate, with a guilty verdict meaning death for the accused, an inner-city teen. As the dozen jurors try to reach a unanimous decision while sequestered in a room, one juror casts considerable doubt on elements of the case. Personal issues soon rise to the surface, and conflict threatens to derail the delicate process that will decide one boy’s fate.

The Singing Horn: Mary Beth Orr, French horn & vocalist with pianist Kathryn Goodson
2026-02-22 16:00 - 17:30 | Kerrytown Concert House, 415 N Fourth Ave, Ann Arbor, M, 48104, United States
Mary Beth Orr’s The Singing Horn bridges the divide between opposites — folk and classical, raw and refined, life and loss. Some selections will flow like a song cycle, interweaving folk and classical elements, including works by Mahler, Bob Dylan, nostalgic mountain folk melodies like Wayfaring Stranger, as well as her own original songs.
The crossover of genres is both unexpected and satisfying. This program harnesses the synergy of horn and voice as vessels for storytelling and comes together as a love letter to the poignant connection of the human experience

Participants will learn a shibori resist technique to create a unique design on a vintage flour sack towel that will be dyed with either yellow onion skins, red onion skins, or avocado skins–your choice!
Shibori is a resist technique that looks similar to tie-dye; however, it has been around since the 6th century. Natural dyeing dates back even further to the year 2600 BC. You will have the option to pick one dye to dye your towel–yellow onion skins for a golden yellow, red onion skins for a mossy green, or avocado skins for a pale blush coral. There will be time for Q&A and discussion on fugitive versus reliable kitchen dyes. You’ll leave with a beautiful naturally dyed textile and the knowledge to continue experimenting at home.

2026-03-01 16:00 - 18:00 | Kerrytown Concert House, 415 N Fourth Ave, Ann Arbor, M, 48104, United States
Kerrytown Concert House is proud to partner with the Southeastern Michigan Jazz Association (SEMJA) to celebrate Detroit jazz historian and author, Lars Bjorn, at this year’s Ron Brooks Award Concert. Named for SEMJA’s founder, the Ron Brooks Award honors individuals who have made significant contributions to the Detroit jazz community as performers and educators.
For the last dozen years, Lars Bjorn has served as the president of SEMJA, supporting the music in many ways: as a scholar, teacher, interviewer, writer, and panelist, collaborating with the major local jazz festivals, and informally advising the Kerrytown Concert House from the very beginnings of its jazz offerings. Bjorn has been widely celebrated, together with his co-author Jim Gallert, for Before Motown, the pioneering widely praised first major history of jazz in Detroit, the culmination of years of research, including numerous in-depth musician interviews that are now archived for future use. For many years, Lars was a sociology professor at the University of Michigan, Dearborn, teaching courses on Detroit and its music. To mark the occasion, an outstanding lineup of area jazz musicians will take the stage in tribute, performing the music that Bjorn has spent a lifetime championing. Featured artists include bassist Paul Keller, pianist Adam Mosley, guitarist Ralph Tope, drummer Jesse Kramer, and more.
Join us in honoring Lars Bjorn and the music that he champions and loves. Get your tickets today!
