The Red Line Jazz Project is a public arts initiative from Mandala South Asian Performing Arts that brings free live music to Chicago Red Line L stations and surrounding community spaces from May through October 2026. Curated by jazz musician and Mandala Artist-in-Residence Fareed Haque, the series features local jazz musicians and ensembles performing short live sets that blend jazz improvisation with global musical influences. Artists scheduled to appear include Fareed Haque, Butter Chicken Brass Band, Ugochi Nwaogwugwu, Renee C. Baker of AACM, and Luciano Antonio, among others. The July 30 performance at the Chinatown Visitor Center takes place from 5–7 p.m.
