Jazz is the gift that keeps on giving!
Each year the Holiday Jazz Concert, a charity event, brings awareness to organizations in our community that provide services necessary to strengthen the health, wellness, and provision of those in need.
Admission is Free with 5 non-perishable food items, toiletries, and/or men’s socks. Concert donations will benefit the efforts of the Emergency Aide Coalition & The Lord of the Streets Homeless Shelter, through Trinity Episcopal Church.
We are ringing in the holiday season with the Summer Jazz Workshop Jazz Jam, and a special performance by Mathias Lattin.
Great fun for all ages! Sing along to your holiday favorites and find a new groove with original songs from our special blend of musicians. Let’s celebrate the holiday spirit with a little JAZZ!

SINCE 1972, THE Summer Jazz Workshop (SJW) has schooled more than 15,000 middle and high school-age students in the art of playing jazz, a music Duke Ellington once described as “freedom of expression.” Saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist Kelly Dean, who teaches music at Houston’s Emery/Weiner School, has been an SJW faculty member since 1994, and his commitment to the workshop — co-founded by the late great drummer and educator Bubbha Thomas and Thomas’ mentor Conrad O. Johnson — remains strong.
