Summer will be just a little sweeter this year as the irresistibly cool sounds of jazz resonate through Manhattan. The K-State Student Union is once again hosting a series of free outdoor jazz performances for the general public. Jazz on the Plaza is a continuation of last year’s Jazz at Colbert Hills, and will feature world-renowned jazz talents. Performances are scheduled for June 12, 26, July 17, and 31 from 7 to 9 p.m. on the Student Union outdoor Plaza.

Delicious barbecue dinners will also be available for just $5.95 per plate. In the event of rain, concerts will be moved inside to the Student Union Courtyard, located on the Ground Floor near the Bookstore.

Jazz on the Plaza is co-sponsored by the K-State Student Union, Union Program Council, International Association of Jazz Educators, Glenn’s Music, Mid-America Piano, and Midnight Blue Jazz Quartet. For additional information, please contact Gayle Spencer at 532-6541.
