Michigan Jazz Festival Snapshots
The eighteenth festival turned out to be the last festival with Midge Ellis as coordinator, but she will remain on the Board of Directors. If all goes according to plan Schoolcraft College will assume a larger role in organizing the festival. SEMJA contributed to the educational mission of this year’s festival. |
