In conjunction with our ongoing partnership with the Washington Spectator, and our co-sponsors The Big Bend Sentinel, Marfa Public Radio and Marfa Book Company, we are hosting our second Marfa Dialogues, which this year will address complex issues associated with environmental sustainability.

A not-to-be-missed concert by legendary German saxophonist Peter Brötzmann and vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz on 18 September 2012 at the Crowley Theater in Marfa, Texas.

Ballroom Marfa was pleased to have musician Jason Adasiewicz visit bands students at Marfa Junior High School as part of our Making Art Work program.

Please join us on 12 October 2012 for a special performance by bona-fide, 100% unadulterated soul singer, Lee Fields & the Expressions. Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears open.

Ballroom Marfa is hosting the second Bike-In, which promotes a healthy lifestyle by encouraging all attendees to bike or walk to the event. For the next outdoor screening on Thursday, November 15, beginning at 7:30PM, we will screen Carbon Nation, a documentary about the solutions to climate change, relating directly to the themes in the current visual arts exhibition, Carbon 13.

Ballroom Marfa and the Marfa Public Library are proud to present the second installment of Book and a Movie, a program highlighting novels that have been adapted for film. The book and film selected for November is The Godfather, written by Mario Puzo in 1969 and adapted for film by Francis Ford Coppola in 1972.
