Free Admission Thursday from 11am to 6pm at Houston Museum of African American Culture - see INFO below. The Jazz Church of Houston is an endeavor by artist Tierney Malone to create a temporary institution dedicated to collecting and sharing the story of Houston's musical tribe. While there are museums in Texas dedicated to music, a space does not exist that chronicles the jazz history of Houston. The name Jazz Church drew its inspiration from the Church of John Coltrane in San Francisco. Established in 1970, the church uses John Coltranes music as an expression of worship. The Jazz Church of Houston is a secular temple that will serve as a communal gathering place for like-minded people to listen, learn and celebrate jazz music and culture in Houston. More Info below.
