Every week, Express presents a selection of exhibitions, performances, workshops, events and other historic, creative and delicious content to help islanders get their weekly dose of culture.
Here’s this week’s offering…
Tribute concert
A charity concert in memory of a former teacher and major figure in Jersey’s music scene is being held this weekend.
Colin Amos, who died last year, was the head of the Jersey Instrumental Service between 1990 and 2006 and was also head of music at Le Rocquier school.
On Saturday, Mark Willmett is hosting a charity concert, which will feature the Le Rocquier Big Band, the Les Quennevais All Star Steel Band and The Jersey Bounce.
The concert is being staged in the hall at Les Quennevais School from 19:00.
Tickets can be purchased online here.

Mindscapes exhibition
Two neurodivergent artists opened a new art exhibition in St Helier last week.
The joint exhibition Mindscapes, by Chris Addy and Emilie Knight, will run until 2nd October.
It explores identity, crisis and change following an autism diagnosis.
The exhibition can be found at Studio 18 on Beresford Street until October.
