An explorer of many mediums who has been called a “visionary musician” by the New York Times\, Gay has found a form of creative expression that begins with improvisation and expands beyond the limits of any single genre. \nWith more than 20 years in vibrant experimental music scenes\, Gay’s talents have earned him residencies globally\, most recently as a Mellon Foundation Archival Fellow\, and he is a member of the Association of the Advancement of Creative Musicians since 2010. Gay is a highly sought-after talent by some of the most influential figures; he’s collaborated with Dorotheé Munyaneza\, Theaster Gates\, Nicole Mitchell\, Tomeka Reid and Mike Reed\, to name a few. \n \nReceiving accolades for a parade of more than seven albums\, his release “Open Arms to Open Us” solidified his place in the firmament of the Chicago Jazz Renaissance and was revered as one of the “Best Albums of 2021” by Washington Post\, Pitchfork\, JazzTimes\, and Digital Berliner. Gay is a beneficiary of the 2018 3Arts Award and the 2019 Worldwide Award from BBC DJ Gilles Peterson. \n \nA worldwide performer\, Gay’s creative projects are embraced by communities in Rwanda\, Brazil\, Italy\, France\, Japan\, Nigeria\, Germany\, Cuba\, and more. He is adopting global visions while remaining true to his roots as a South-Side native of Chicago. \n\n\n\nThis project is partially supported by a CityArts Grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. \nThis project is supported\, in whole or in part\, by federal assistance listing number\, 21.027 awarded to the International Museum of Surgical Science by the US Treasury through the American Rescue Plan Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds in the amount of $125\,000.00\, representing 83% of total project funding. \nThis project is partially supported by a Chicago Arts Recovery Program grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. \n\n\n\nThe International Museum of SurgicalScience acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council.
