Cup o' Joe Patio, Lennox Town Center, Columbus, Ohio
The “jam session" is a place where jazz musicians get together to play and gain a better understanding of the language of jazz in a public setting. Try out new techniques, play tunes you are learning, and explore your improvisational chops with other musicians, supportive listeners and encouraging peers.
July Jams is an opportunity for aspiring musicians to gather together to play, learn, experiment and explore jazz and improvisation. Middle and high school musicians of all levels and abilities are welcome to participate in July Jams at the Cup o' Joe Patio at Lennox Town Center from 3:00 - 5:00pm, July 13, 20 and 27. There is a $5.00 registration fee and advance registration is requested but not required. Registration for July Jams is NOT AVAILABLE through the website. Contact Carol Argiro at 294-5200 X107 or email [email protected] to register.
