Plenty of talented musicians have taken the stage at The Venue in Aurora since it opened its doors five years ago.

But when you have more than 20 talented musicians taking the stage in one night, well, that's a treat that won't be forgotten anytime soon.

Such was the case on May 10, when Chicagoland poet, author, and singer songwriter Jenny Bienemann hosted a Haiku Milieu concert at The Venue. During the night, musicians performed songs inspired by her original haiku poems. 

 

Those attending the show were treated to a night of uplifting music.

 In addition, the concert was a reminder of how we are blessed to have such a vibrant music scene.

The night was also a way for musicians to bond with other musicians and in turn, form a connection with the audience.
