Timeless Jazz, Boundless Sound
On the second Thursday of each month, October to May, our Jamaica Performing Arts Center comes alive with the spirit of discovery. Curated by Rio Sakairi of The Jazz Gallery, Thursday Night Jazz is one of our longest-running popular programs . We present revered masters and vibrant new voices and celebrate our community’s rich cultural heritage.
Tickets are $10. Performances are at 8pm. JCAL offers blocks of free seats at every concert for seniors (62+) and students who live or work in a 114 zip code. Simply show your ID and a piece of mail with your current address and your ticket is free.
Thursday Night Jazz and its sister series, Riddim Section, culminate every summer in the annual Downtown Jamaica Riddim & Jazz Festival in King Manor Park.
JCAL gratefully acknowledges public support from NY City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams (Speaker’s Initiative), NY City Council Member Nantasha Williams, and the Council’s Cultural Immigrant Initiative.
JCAL gratefully acknowledges operating support from the Mellon Foundation, Howard Gilman Foundation, Matisse Foundation, Altman Foundation, and MacMillan Foundation.
