In April, H3O Jazz Trio and Island City Brewing Company teamed up to raise funds for area non-profits as part of their popular monthly Jazz Jams. The continuing generosity of Jazz Jam patrons resulted in $825 being donated to the Grace Place in August bringing total contributions to area non-profits to over $3,400!

The September Jazz Jam fundraiser recipient will be the Ready Set School. The local non-profit works to ensure that all eligible K-12 students who attend school in Winona County have the basic and necessary supplies and clothing for school. This organization was selected from a nomination made via H3O’s website:: h3ojazz.com/jazz-jams/non-profit-nominations.html.

On Sunday September 19, 2021, the Jazz Jam will continue to welcome performers while raising money for area non-profits. H3O will contribute all donations (aka tips) received during the afternoon. Island City and H3O will match the total amount collected — tripling everyone’s contributions!

The September Jazz Jam will be held on Island City’s patio from 2:30 – 5:30 p.m. Performers will have the option to perform with or without masks and equipment will be sanitized.

Interested players can choose their tunes from a wide selection. Music is available from the Hal Leonard Real Book series, bring your own music, or just name that tune!

Come early to grab a beverage, find your favorite spot on the patio, and enjoy an afternoon of great jazz with H3O … all while showing your support for our community!
