The Block by West Michigan Symphony

The Block is a 115-seat listening room for the musically curious located on the second floor of the Russell Block Building in downtown Muskegon. Its core 12-concert series includes regional, national and international artists as well as WMS musicians. During summer The Block hosts a sold-out jazz series featuring legendary regional drummer Tim Froncek and a changing cast of musician colleagues.

A rarity in the orchestra industry and unheard of in a community this size, The Block serves as a exceptional alternative venue complementing the WMS’s mainstage orchestra offerings at the nearby historic Frauenthal Center.

In addition to The Block’s primary performance series, it serves as the home for several youth music ensembles: Debut Strings and Premier Stringsand the West Michigan Symphony Children’s Choir. WMS makes the venue available for rental on open days or nights.
