"We believe it will greatly enhance the visitor's experience and take our John Coltrane exhibit to another level."
Beginning August 24, the exhibit "Coltrane vs. the Jazz Critics: 1961-1966" will recount former High Point resident John Coltrane's uneasy relationship with jazz critics. The exhibit focuses on the tumultuous Civil Rights' period during a campaign by Down Beat magazine to discredit his musical experiments in the years before Coltrane's national recognition. The exhibit will be open to the public through September 16, 2012.
