JUST HUNG THIS EXHIBIT YESTERDAY! ONE-OF-A KIND ASBURY PARK WEST SIDE MUSIC EXHIBIT Asbury Park’s Springwood Avenue Harmony: Celebrating The West Side’s Unique Musical Legacy Long before Asbury Park became known for rock music, the city’s African American community rocked on Springwood Avenue. Between 1910 and 1970, the city’s West Side pioneered the sounds of jazz, gospel and rhythm & blues. The Asbury Park Historical Society and Classic Urban Harmony LLC are working in connection with the Light Of Day Foundation and Monmouth Universitys Center for the Arts on an upcoming gallery exhibit that highlights Asbury Park’s black music scene from Count Basie to Billy Brown. The exhibit will contain scores of rare photographs plus phonograph records, posters, sheet music, and other memorabilia from Asbury Parks West Side. It will cover jazz, gospel and R&B music, and will also highlight black radio, record labels, record stores and Springwood Avenue nightclubs and theaters. “This is the first, and probably only, exhibit of its kind ever presented to the public and I urge everyone to stop by and see an important part of Asbury Park’s rich musical heritage that is often overlooked,” Historical Society President Don Stine said. The exhibit will first open in the Heaven Art Gallery, 721 Cookman Avenue, from Sunday, Jan. 11 through Monday, Jan. 19 (Martin Luther King Jr. Day) during Asbury Parks annual Light Of Day concert series. Gallery hours are Sunday and Monday from noon to 5 p.m. and Thursday from noon to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. The gallery is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Following the exhibits close in Asbury Park, it will be expanded even further and moved to Monmouth Universitys Pollak Gallery on the universitys campus at 400 Cedar Avenue, West Long Branch. There it can be viewed for the entire month of February and this exhibit will also include vintage musical instruments and posters. Additional related events are planned and will be announced. The Light Of Day Foundation funds research into Parkinsons Disease and their concert series brings thousands of music fans from around the world to the Asbury Park area.
