I like this venue. It's musician-run, and under ordinary circumstances 100% of concert proceeds go to the musicians performing. Decent acoustics, decent baby-grand piano. The main negative is that it doesn't garner much if, if any, drop-ins from foot traffic. This may change, as it's a fairly new venue. This used to be the old CIM (center for improvised music) space, but remodeled and improved since then.
