The Way You Make Me Feel reimagines the timeless songs of Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 through the lens of contemporary jazz, soul, and R&B—blending rich improvisation with unmistakable melodies that span generations.

Featuring renowned vocalist Niki Haris, celebrated for her two decades as the powerhouse voice behind Madonna, this dynamic performance brings both star power and deep musicality to the stage. Under the musical direction and inventive arrangements of bandleader Christian Tamburr, the project transforms these legendary songs into modern jazz interpretations honoring their original spirit while opening new space for creativity, interplay and improvisation.

The ensemble delivers a vibrant, rhythmically charged experience that highlights Tamburr’s signature approach to groove, texture, and ensemble storytelling. From the infectious energy of Jackson 5 classics to the global anthems of Michael Jackson’s solo career, each piece is reimagined with nuance, spontaneity, and soul.

The Way You Make Me Feel is a bold, artistically driven exploration of a legendary songbook, celebrating the innovation, emotion, and enduring impact of a global icon.

Kelly’s work is featured in our current gallery exhibition, Not Away, on display until September 26.

This event is free and open to the public ages 17 . RSVP is required – please visit bit.ly/notaway2026 to reserve your spot today.

Indigenous food has always been at the table even when it wasn’t recognized as such. Join us at Coastal Table and Tales for an evening with Chef Crystal Wahpepah, founder of Wahpepah’s Kitchen in Oakland, the first Indigenous woman to own a restaurant in Northern California, a James Beard Award finalist, and the first Indigenous chef to appear on Food Network’s Chopped.

Chef Wahpepah will prepare two dishes rooted in generations of Kickapoo foodways: Kickapoo Chili and Sweetblue Cornbread. Dishes that carry her heritage forward, on their own terms.

During the demonstration, Chef Wahpepah,will be in conversation with her co-author, Amy Paige Condon, about her cookbook, her heritage food, and what it means to reclaim recognition at the table. The evening will also open up discussion on:

The long, often unrecognized presence of Indigenous cuisine in American food culture
The role of land acknowledgment in modern cooking
How Native ingredients are finding their way back into everyday kitchens
Chef Wahpepah’s path from home cook to James Beard finalist and culinary ambassador
Come hungry, come curious, and leave with a signed copy of the book and a deeper appreciation for the food heritage that’s always belonged at the table.
