  • Event lasts 4 hours
  • ALL AGES

You're invited to a unique fundraiser in support of the annual Jersey City Latin Jazz Festival. Trombone master Juanga Lakunza leads a quartet through a century of music made possible by the cláve rhythm. It's an amazing program that will have you swinging (maybe even dancing?) In addition to smoking hot music, you'll enjoy delicious Latin food (including cage-free homemade arroz con gandules from Queens NY and Dolly's award-winning Tres Leches, made special for us) Plus liquid refreshments, community hotshots and musicos, all mingling in the summery setting of a backyard in Greenville. Seating is very limited, so don't wait to order tickets. Doors open at 4 pm. Program starts at 5 pm.
