Alex Minasian, acclaimed jazz pianist and impresario, brings his quartet to Music on Meetinghouse Green. Alex Minasian quickly earned the attention of the music world for his performances at the country’s most famous jazz venues including the Blue Note, Birdland, Village Vanguard, and The Apollo Theater. His brilliant career has found him sharing the stage with jazz legends James Ingram, Arturo Sandoval, Marilyn McCoo, Joe Pesci, Hank Jones, Clark Terry, and many others. He has also headlined important jazz celebrations including the Rochester Jazz Festival and performed at the Montreal Jazz Festival and the Istanbul Jazz Festival. New York City audiences will find him performing weekly at the iconic Tavern on the Green restaurant. He has been featured in Yerevan Magazine, a Los Angeles-based publication promoting Armenian news and culture. Minasian teams up with bassist Brandi Disterheft, drummer Joe Farnsworth, and saxophonist Bill Pierce for their return appearance at the Music on Meetinghouse Green summer music concerts.

Join Us

The GMF Annual Fund is dedicated to raising the resources that are necessary to run the organization.  In 2026 the Meetinghouse will reach 220 years in service to Cape Ann, a miraculous survivor and centerpiece of the Historic District.  Our successful and ongoing mission is to preserve it as a cultural venue, civic hub and community gathering center. 

We are mostly volunteers but our paid executive assistant, Ashley Shedd, provides invaluable and efficient office support.  We also incur significant costs for building use, graphics, web hosting, marketing, advertising and other essential services.  This year we will be hiring additional professional staff for enhanced program growth, grant-writing, development, and planning for the upcoming Capital Campaign. 

Your generous contributions to the Annual Fund are central to facilitating our vision for a completely renovated and updated Meetinghouse, complementary to the new Sawyer Free Library and expanded Cape Ann Museum – an incomparable resource capable of hosting as many as 500 participants for community-focused forums, events and performances. 

Delivering on our great aspirations depends upon you.
