Annette A. Aguilar’s String Beans performed at the Jazz WaHi pre-Festival Party on Monday.
The real kickoff is Th Nov 6th. The Festival runs at United Palace through Nov 9th.
The United Palace is a gorgeous old movie house, sitting on a square block near the GW Bridge.
The details, colors, grandeur of this place took my breath away.
Thanks to my friend Cindy, who is a genuine New York City tours guide, for introducing me to this gem. Cindy also guided me to this destination, pointing out highlights along our route. [All I knew about WaHi before this was what I learned from Lin Manuel Miranda’s musical. And it’s not the one you’re thinking of.]
These photos are only of the lobby. The auditorium is even more spectacular.
Visit the United Palace to hear the Jazz WaHi Festival or over the holidays for a performance of the Nutcracker, or a movie.
