Jazz at Five is free to the public, we depend on our sponsors to make everything possible! Email eventdirector@jazzatfive.org to be a Jazz at Five sponsor.
The Jazz at Five kicks off each Wednesday evenings show:
- 4:00 – 4:30 with youth jazz performers. As a courtesy to our youth; beverage service starts at 4:30
- 5:00 – 6:15 first performers, beer, wine and nonalcoholic beverage can be purchased
- 6:45 – 8:00 second performing group. Done by 8:00 in time for dinner downtown
One of the benefits of being a sponsor is a reserved table for eight each performance evening, waiting for when you arrive. In addition, the Jazz at Five wait staff provides all Sponsor tables food, beer and wine service at their table.
Jazz at Five has numerous food vendors on site. Another sponsor benefit is sponsors can pre-order food from the Jazz at Caterer to be delivered hot to your table.
Jazz at Five also has rental chairs on site… but come early the chair demand usually exceeds chair supply.
Jazz at Five Culture
Jazz is not quiet, it encourages dancing, involvement, discussion… improvising… our culture is change is good, diversity brings a better result… no two performances of the same music by the same performer is the same.
Be different. Change. Have fun!
