Jazz in the Garden
This Saturday!

Where else would you rather be this Saturday early evening, than picnicking, watching the sun set and listening to some Jazz?

The forecast is showing a chance of 0-4mm rain, but we’re wildly optimistic that these light showers will be quickly done with, allowing the skies to brighten again ahead of the afternoon!  Join us in our dogged optimism?

If too wet, we’ve decided we will keep the venue outdoors for extra ventilation, and we’ll simply head undercover to the Undercroft for the show instead. Grounds open to guests at 5:30pm. Students are welcome to sit and eat with their parents in between sets.

2pm – Jazz Combo
3pm – Intermediate | Advanced Stage Bands | Jazz Vocal Ensemble
