The Lipsey Summer Jazz at the AKG concerts take place on the museum’s Lincoln Stairs overlooking Hoyt Lake. Admission is free. Parking is available on the roads surrounding the Buffalo AKG, or in the museum’s underground Parking Garage off Elmwood Avenue. Please take care to adhere to all parking regulations.  

In case of inclement weather, the performances will be moved indoors to the Stanford and Judith Lipsey Auditorium. Admission is free; however, no food or beverages are allowed. The Lipsey Auditorium, which is accessible from the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Town Square in the Seymour H. Knox Building, holds approximately 400 people and seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please check the museum’s website and social media channels on Sunday mornings for updates.
