Jazz in the Streets
In an effort to bring live jazz music to the community, each summer the Seacoast Jazz Society sponsors outdoor jazz performances at high visibility locations in downtown Portsmouth, with the goal of expanding this program to other seacoast communities. A variety of jazz music is featured during the live performances. The musicians are all professional jazz musicians who donate their time and talent to increase awareness and enthusiasm for this very special artform.
