Reserve Seats
Most of our 300 seats are for those who just show up - but as a courtesy to our friends who work late, we've set aside 100 advance reservations for general admission. All other seats are 'first come, first served' and are available as early as 6:45 pm, when the doors open. Note that reservations are good for entrance only, not for specific seats. Reservations are void after 7:20pm.
If reservations are gone, don't worry - just show up! It is rare for Music Mondays to turn anyone away
PATRONS who have given $1000 or more in the last year, and SUSTAINERS who have given $500 or more in the last year may reserve four or two seats respectively in advance of concerts. Email info@musicmondays.org to reserve.
