Making a monthly home at the Arts at the Armory Cafe space, The Loop is a monthly performance by a collective of local singers, songwriters, and musician. Hosted the fourth Thursday of every month, the upcoming show will be on Feb. 26, hosted by musician Prateek Poddar. The show is free, open to all ages and runs from 7:00 to 10:30 p.m. There will be coffee, wine and beer available at the cafe.

The Loop is a collective of singers, songwriters, and musicians who come from different backgrounds and musical styles. The group has been the catalyst for collaborative work and discussions of songwriting craft over the course of the year. They perform with their members playing short sets of around twenty minutes over the course of the evening. The group puts a heavy emphasis on developing creative outlets and enjoyable practice.

The Armory itself is home to many different creative groups, from an instrument repair shop to a small literary press. The space seeks to showcase a wide range of arts, including dance, theater and musical performances. The Armory has been beautifully restored and many of the buildings historic elements have been preserved, making for a dynamic arts center.
