Join us for this special First Friday event commemorating Kuumbwa Jazz’s 50th anniversary. Enjoy the premiere of Celebrating Creativity, an exhibit spanning 50 years of Kuumbwa archives, including posters, photos, and historical ephemera.
At 6 PM there will be a conversation with Kuumbwa co-founder Tim Jackson and Bay Area vocalist Kim Nalley, exploring Kuumbwa’s history and role in the greater Bay Area and Central Coast jazz and music scene. (Can’t make it in-person? The conversation will be live-streamed!)
Enjoy the Kuumbwa café and bar, as well as DJ sets curated by our neighbors at Redwood Records.
This archive exhibit is sponsored in memory of Carolyn Hyatt.
This event is presented as a part of the monthly First Friday Art Tour, Santa Cruz.
