Jambalaya Arts Inc., a non-profit art gallery in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, is expanding by opening a dedicated music venue called The Jamb on High Avenue. The new space, set for a soft opening at the end of March, will host live music events, allowing the gallery to stop the labor-intensive process of converting its existing Main Street gallery for performances.
The expansion addresses a significant gap in the local arts infrastructure, providing a dedicated, community-owned venue for musicians and artists between Fond du Lac and Green Bay. For the volunteer-run organization, which has operated for 25 years, this move represents a major step in sustaining its mission of offering accessible creative space and could shape the cultural landscape of the region for decades.
