Jazz reveals its spirit and soul through improvisation. The same can be said for this year’s Tri-C JazzFest Cleveland, presented by KeyBank. We are refusing to let the COVID-19 outbreak silence the music we love, and that’s why we will make toes tap this year, just in a different way.

A virtual festival showcasing Cleveland’s deep reservoir of jazz talent will stream across various online platforms over two late-summer nights. The tunes will start at 7 p.m. on both Friday, Aug. 21 and Saturday, Aug. 22.

The online event will be free, though viewers will have the opportunity to donate to Cuyahoga Community College’s Student Emergency Fund. Money raised will specifically benefit creative arts students experiencing unforeseen financial challenges with the potential to derail their studies.
