Bring your own harp and join Colombian-born Edmar Castaneda for a class that will be open for musicians trained in both classical and jazz techniques. Castaneda’s virtuosic command of the harp has revolutionized the way audiences and critics alike consider an instrument commonly relegated to the “unusual category” in jazz. Castaneda will share how he realizes beautiful complexities of time while skillfully drawing out lush colors and dynamic spirit in his playing.

Front and center in The Clarice Grand Pavilion, there is a stage. What will you see here? Who is performing?

This stage doesn't have a lineup or a schedule…you'll have be there to find out!

The NextNOW Fest is about connection, exploration and finding your voice. The Clarice YouBooth is an opportunity to express yourself, share your story and see the NextNOW people in our community.

Sing a song. Dance your dance. Be who you are meant to be.
