Springfield Jazz Festival

Enjoy a night of live jazz at The 3rd Annual Springfield Jazz Festival in Downtown Springfield on Friday, Oct. 5.

As part of the First Friday Art Walk, there are many other activities taking place, including a showing of the “Diversity of Jazz” art contest entries at the Abundant Life Covenant Church.

The event is free and open to the public. Visit Springfield Jazz Festival online for more details.
