Northwest Arts Review: 3 June, 2021

Today, Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture history curator Freya Liggett drops by to tell about the range of exhibits available at the MAC this summer. The Spokane Symphony’s James Lowe checks in with his thoughts surrounding the orchestra’s now completely available virtual spring concert series. Doug Nadvornik shares a story of artistic achievement by two of our region’s students and, from our most recent Kids’ Concert, we’ll hear from the Morizov family, trumpeter Sam, and violinist Jessie.

After more than 25 years of teaching music, theater and English in San Francisco schools, Jim relocated to Spokane in 1995 to become organist/music director for St. Augustine Parish on the South Hill. Since around 2004, with the help and patience of Verne Windham, he has been able to realize his long-standing dream of doing radio. Jim specializes in classical music, but also can do the occasional jazz show. Jim and his wife, Carol, fill their free time caring for llamas, rabbits and chickens after having watched their two children grow up and leave the nest.
