Guitarist Will Sellenraad will perform in concert at the Sullivan County Museum, Friday, June 21, at 4 p.m.  Will is known for his brilliant improvisations and compelling compositions that combine elements of jazz, soul, rock and funk. As a New York City native, and the son of prominent New York painters, Will was drawn to music at an early age.  He is a graduate of the New School University Jazz Program, and has been in constant demand in and around New York City, appearing at venues such as The 55 Bar, Smalls, Mezzrow, The Blue Note, and Birdland. You can hear his music at willsellenraad.com.

The concert is sponsored by the Frederick Cook Society and is part of the opening of the new photography exhibition celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Belgian Antarctic Expedition.  The program will include a lecture, beginning at 6pm, on the history of Antarctic exploration.
