A Studio Affair with Pocket Vinyl – Music, Art, and Magic Combined!

December 20, 2025, 6:30 – 10:00PM
Pocket Vinyl goes on at 9:00 PM
Join us at Village Center for the Arts for an unforgettable evening of creativity, music, and live art! Our next Studio Affair features the one-of-a-kind duo Pocket Vinyl, an incredibly unique piano-slamming, live-painting band from Connecticut.

Pocket Vinyl’s performances are a mesmerizing blend of insightful piano-driven indie rock and spontaneous visual art. As musician Eric Stevenson plays and sings his original songs with raw passion, painter Elizabeth Jancewicz brings the music to life through a live painting, created right before your eyes! Each performance is completely original, and the finished artwork is auctioned off at the end of the show, making every event truly one-of-a-kind.

This special 21+ community event is free and open to the public. Guests are welcome to BYOB and enjoy a relaxed, art-filled evening surrounded by creative energy. Walk in and experience the fusion of sound and color that has captivated audiences across the region, right here at Village Center for the Arts.
