Michigan Jazz Festival 2012

The free Michigan Jazz Festival is still going strong in its 19th year. There will be great music in a very comfortable and friendly Michigan Jazz Festivalenvironment, and you have a choice of listening inside or outside. This year's festival will be held on Sunday, July 15, at Schoolcraft College from noon until 9:15 p.m. There will be music on six stages inside buildings or under a tent on the lawn, performed by 23 groups and 5 big bands, for a total of almost 150 musicians. The complete schedule is found in our calendar, along with that of other festivals in the next two months. SEMJA also provides a Michigan Jazz Festival schedule specially formatted for mobile devices.

Schoolcraft College features high quality food services, and plenty of opportunities for socializing. SEMJA will have a table there as usual, so please drop by and say hello. For further information please call 248-474-2720 or 734-459-2454 or go to the Festival website.
