Tucked in the basement level of a historic St. Paul building, the Artists' Quarter has a subterranean, classic vibe evoking a bygone era.  The club is owned by working jazz musicians, who designed a sound, look and feel for the optimal live experience.  Whether presenting a legend like Roy Haynes (who recorded the live CD Whereas at the club) or a rising star from the Twin Cities scene, the AQ takes its jazz very seriously.  Don’t despair the lack of a kitchen – the friendly AQ staff will set you up with food delivered by nearby restaurants.
