A musical ensemble led by saxophonist and composer Alex Violette – whom Harlem World Magazine calls a rising star, brings the sweet sounds of jazz to Owl’s Head Park on Saturday, September 8, from 12 noon to 3 p.m.
The event, known as Jazz In The Park, will include free activities for children and is a great way to introduce the whole family to a new aesthetic experience.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs, blankets, light snacks, and soft drinks. Grilling and alcoholic beverages are unfortunately a no-no.
In a written statement, Councilman Vincent Gentile said, “Now with newly paved pathways, benches, fencing and landscaping – the Owl’s Head Park Overlook is the destination spot for families to enjoy beautiful weather, scenery and cultural performances sponsored by the Bay Ridge Arts + Culture Alliance… I hope everyone will help me kick-off this season with a little jazz in the park!”
Just another reminder that you can find something for everyone on the Bay Ridge Odyssey Events Calender.
Owl’s Head Park is located at 68th Street and Shore Road.
