Our Year End Holiday Celebration
Each year we present one of the best-spirited event of the season
As is our tradition, the concert features a world-class jazz artist performing alongside our own Jazz Arts Academy students. We have named this concept as legends and Lions where a legendary musician pairs with and mentors the lions (students) in the art of jazz.
In 2023 we hosted 16-time Grammy Award winner, Paquito D'Rivera along with our faculty and 16 students from the Jazz Arts Academy.

Elevated yet casual Dining
Triumph brews traditional styles from around the world with a concentration in lagers, eschewing the trendy, the extreme, and the undrinkably weird. Our beers, neither filtered nor pasteurized, are served directly from lagering tanks and sparkle with a freshness you will find nowhere else.
