The festival begins Thursday evening with a free outdoor concert on the Town Green and continues Friday and Saturday with area school jazz performances, early and late jazz restaurant venues, a jazzy breakfast, a 5K run/walk, a scholarship golf tournament, a “Dizzy” exhibit at the Heritage Center, a bebop parade, all-you-can-eat BBQ, children’s art activities, a pastel chalk art competition, a floral umbrella display, a Jazzmin high tea, and more.
