The reception will be followed by a concert from NYC/LA trumpet and guitar collaboration, TIN/BAG, a group who has been called, "Radiant... there's an open, intensely emotional quality to the duo's playing... spare, haunting, with hints of modernist avant garde gestures." by Andy Hamilton of The Wire (UK).  The concert begins at 7:30pm and is $10.
