DON'T MISS THE NEXT SEVEN EXCITING DAYS!
We who live in this area are fortunate, indeed, to be able to enjoy--and support--an incredible jazz opportunity. Presented by Pacific Arts Association and the City of Blaine, and sponsored in part by The Northern Light and Smuggler's Inn, we have seven exciting days of rehearsals, combos, improv, composition, and other great classes for teens with an internationally recognized faculty culminating in a jazz concert featuring student big bands, combos and vocal groups PLUS multiple performances by visiting jazz artists.
Kicking it off TONIGHT is
MaD Fusion Does Gershwin Concert
July 11, 7:30 p.m. Blaine PAC.
Tickets are available online at http://www.pacificartsassoc.org/
or call Suzanne at 676-5740.
There still might be a few tickets that can be purchased at the door, but this is a very popular concert. It's guaranteed to get your toes tapping and your fingers snapping!
Please check out www.thenorthernlight.com/calendar for other fabulous concerts in conjunction with this jazz festival ... don't miss Greta Metassa performing at the Bellingham Ferry Terminal!
Each day of the Festival you can catch a free outdoor concert at around noon, performed by internationally known jazz performers who are also the festival faculty. Check out the Pacific Arts Association website for locations, although they're usually set up on Peace Portal and G in Blaine, WA.
Go to http://www.pacificartsassoc.org/ for details about who is doing what during this incredible jazz event. Perhaps you have a student who might benefit from such an opportunity, and you'll learn about scholarships and how to register for next year's festival. You'll also find ways you can help out or donate to keep this worthy educational opportunity going strong!
See you there!
