I used to stand on the corner and wait for the door to swing open to see the band on stage. When I came home from the military I started playing the Turf with some of the local bands . . . The Turf is a very special place and will always be home to me.” ✨🎶 #apamp #tuesdaysattheturf #quartet #springwoodavehistory #blackhistory #springwoodavemusic #turfclub #livemusic #asburyparkhistory #asburypark #community @johnsonvel @monmoutharts @asburyaudio @_macrobites @breathlessconni

We are so excited! 📣Just announced! The Asbur We are so excited! 📣Just announced! The Asbury Park African-American Music Project has received $100,000 from the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund, a program of @SavingPlaces!!! ✨🎶 This funding will support the rehabilitation of the legendary Turf Club! AP-AMP is one of 33 organizations out of 627 applicants from across the U.S. to receive a total of $3 million in grant funding to advance ongoing preservation activities for historic places such as sites, museums, and landscapes that represent African American cultural heritage. With more than $80 million in funding, the Action Fund is the largest U.S. resource dedicated to the preservation of African American historic places. Now in its fifth year, the Action Fund has supported 160 places through its National Grant Program for a total investment of $12.4 million. This year’s list further demonstrates the beauty and complexity of African American life, and includes historic sites tied to Black arts, culture, civic engagement, entrepreneurship, sports, medicine, education, religion, and social justice. These often-overlooked places hold aspects of history that must be protected—and used to draw inspiration and wisdom for the benefit of all Americans. To learn more about this program and this year’s grant recipients, visit savingplaces.org/actionfund. 📸 Courtesy of the Jim Gallert Collection. Henderson Quartet on stage at the Blue Bird Inn, 1958.
