"Little more than a year since Ember Schrag launched Clawfoot House as a performance venue in Lincoln’s Near South neighborhood, it has become one of the most vibrant, imaginative and prolific presenters of artists who work on the edge, in media ranging from bluegrass to classical and avant-garde music, and from dance to performance art and the visual arts."
