The Nashville Jazz Workshop announces Jazzmania 2011, its annual fall jazz party and fundraiser. The event will be held Sunday, October 16, from 4:00pm to 8:00pm in Jamison Hall at The Factory in Franklin.

Jazzmania 2011 is the Jazz Party of the Year and will feature food from around the world from Sargent’s Fine Catering, and music from some of Nashville’s finest jazz artists. Musical guests this year include three world-renowned jazz artists: drummer Chester Thompson, the Beegie Adair Trio, and the Duffy Jackson Big Band.

A special feature of the the event is a live and silent auction, with unique and desirable items that include vacation getaways, tickets to top events, special dinner packages, in-home concerts, artwork by the city’s top artists, and much more. The signature feature of our silent auction is Small Works –a collection of 5” x 7” canvases with paintings by some of the area's top artists, produced especially for this event. Guests will enjoy browsing the works and placing bids on their top picks in fun competition with other patrons - the ultimate proceeds going entirely to benefit the mission of the school.

The ticket price includes food from around the world and complimentary wine. Tickets are $100 reserved seating, and $75 general admission, and will be available beginning September 1. Tickets will be available by phone at (615) 242-5299 and online.  All proceeds from this event will benefit the Nashville Jazz Workshop. The Workshop is a non-profit organization for jazz education and performance. It is celebrating its 13th year in operation and its 10th year at the Neuhoff Complex in East Germantown. The Jazz Workshop serves jazz musicians, jazz fans and the jazz community with classes, performances and special events.
