Ashkenaz returns to Earl Bales Park with the fourth annual edition of the Summer Jam FREE concert series. This year’s series explores both fresh and familiar musical themes over the course of four Monday evenings, July 13 and 27 and August 10 and 24. Exciting and unexpected artistic pairings are once again on tap as we connect a variety of Jewish musical artists and traditions with pop, rock, soul, folk, bluegrass, latin and world music performers. There’s always something new to discover at Summer Jam and always a warm and welcoming community vibe, including a vendor marketplace and plenty of green space. Bring a blanket or lawnchair, a picnic and beverages and enjoy amazing music in an idyllic setting with friends and family.
