La Cantera Monthly Residency at The California Clipper 
Join Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center’s La Cantera—our Afro-Caribbean jazz ensemble for emerging musicians (ages 19–24)—for a monthly residency at The California Clipper in Humboldt Park. Rooted in Puerto Rican tradition and shaped by Chicago’s forward-moving jazz scene, La Cantera brings a fresh, high-energy set each month alongside special guest artists from Chicago and beyond.

This residency is a living classroom and a real-deal bandstand: a space where young artists sharpen their craft, build community, and share the stage with master musicians in an intimate club setting. Come for the grooves, stay for the conversation—this is where the next generation meets the moment.

Every 3rd Friday of the month, starting March 2026. Free before 7:00 PM, $5 cover after 7:00 PM supports SRBCC’s programs.
