Start your evening on a high note with the launch of your museum’s weekly Happy Hour, where art, music, and community come together in perfect harmony! This inaugural event sets the stage for a series of unforgettable gatherings that blend creativity with connection. Join us each week from 5:30-8p for creative company and delicious drinks!
Vinyl Voices: DJs & Their Collections
Dive into the heart of music collecting with Vinyl Voices, a unique collaboration between WYXR 91.7 FM and the Brooks Museum of Art. Modeled after a songwriters-in-the-round format, this intimate event brings together three WYXR DJs to share selections from their personal vinyl collections.
Each DJ will take turns spinning tracks while uncovering the stories behind the music—sentimental attachments, serendipitous discoveries, or the historical context that sets a song apart. From rare gems to timeless classics, this is a rare opportunity to connect with the deeper narratives behind the sounds.
Your Hosts for the Evening
