Enjoying Jazzanooga’s one year celebration
Believe it or not, Jazzanooga has been shaking things up at their historic MLK Blvd. location, the Jazzanooga Arts Space, for the last year. They’ve used the space to “further the organization’s mission of cultural preservation, performance, and music education in Chattanooga” and more than 75 programs and events have taken place in Jazzanooga’s space since their doors opened in December of 2015.
And to celebrate this incredible feat, they’ve planned a weekend filled with exciting musical acts featuring local and regional performers. Pick a performance you’d like to hear or pick a night and surprise yourself with that night’s act.
Thursday will feature Chattanooga Creative Center for the Arts’ music students under the direction of Neshawn Calloway, while Friday and Saturday will host the NightCap Series, with Jermaine Purifory and Robin Grant performing respectively.
Or perhaps you’d prefer Sunday’s Jam & Soul Brunch featuring a performance by Nancy Westmoreland. As a bonus treat at each show, the students from Jazzanooga’s Youth Music Academy will serve as the opening act for every performance.
The events will be ‘pay as you go admission’, meaning any financial contribution given is immensely appreciated and will directly benefit Jazzanooga’s community arts programming efforts. Choose an event or experience them all and know you’re helping your local arts community with every dollar you donate.
