Art Gallery

In the Jazz Forum club space we present a rotating exhibit of area visual artists who’s work is available for sale. For each exhibit we host an artists’ reception open to the public featuring a panel conversation with the exhibiting artists.

The gallery is an expression of our commitment to presenting art in various forms. A portion of the proceeds from all sales serve as a donation to Jazz Forum Arts.

Currently on Exhibit: Winter 2023

About the Artists on Exhibit

A photo of Gerald Cannon in front of his art.

Gerald Cannon

Born in Racine, Wisconsin, Gerald’s initial inspiration was his father Benjamin, a guitarist, who bought him his first electric bass at the ripe young age of 10. He began playing bass in his father’s group ‘The Gospel Expressions’ and he never looked back.

John Menegon

New York City bassist John Menegon started his career playing bass in Montreal. After having worked for several years on the Canadian jazz scene with the great guitarists Sonny Greenwich, Mike Gauthier & Nelson Simons, and saxophonists Steve Grossman & Pat LaBarbara, he went on to hone his skills in NYC in the mid-80s.

Judi Silvano

What Judi Silvano has been able to accomplish thus far gives the appearance of multiple artists’ careers strung together — but it’s all Judi. In fact, she’s always got a new project ready to fly, oftentimes dovetailing and overlapping her previous efforts.
