Red Line Jazz Project is a free public arts initiative from Mandala South Asian Performing Arts, bringing live jazz performances to Chicago Transit Authority Red Line 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 sets that blend jazz improvisation with global musical influences. Artists including Butter Chicken Brass Band, Ugochi Nwaogwugwu, Renee C. Baker of AACM, and Luciano Antonio are among those scheduled to appear across neighborhoods such as Rogers Park, Chatham, Chinatown, Uptown, Bronzeville, and Roseland. The Howard Station performance takes place May 21 from 4 to 6 p.m.
