Columbus, Ohio has always been a place for great music and musicians, especially jazz. Over the past 20-30 years, we have lost those very establishments and venues that supported our local musicians. At one time, we had an organization called "The Columbus Jazz Society", which has since disbanded. Our desire and hope is to generate enough interest by attempting to provide a place where our current; old and young alike striving musicians can once again gather in a common area to provide music for jazz enthusiasts as well as nurture a place to horn our talents. A place where we can learn from others, shadow our mentors, and possibly perform alongside them. Hopefully this will be just the first of many regularly scheduled Open Jazz Jam Sessions held at this location. As normal, a house band will be available for the first set, then open for all other willing musicians; however, they must provide their own instruments and equipment. There will be a required sign-up sheet to perform in the remaining sets. There is no cover for musicians performing; however, a minimum charge of $10.00 will be asked of all non-performers to support this venture and future scheduled sessions. Please help us bring an accessible and affordable venue for live jazz back to Columbus. Purchase your tickets now. Thank You for making this event a successful one! Ed & Pam Robinson, Sponsors.

America’s largest community chorus will perform at the Ohio Theatre for the first time in six years. Against a backdrop of amazing music and compelling performances, concertgoers will experience the impact of Harmony Project's mission to build a more inclusive society by disrupting the dissonance between us and embracing our differences, where participants become catalysts for change in their own communities.

With a career spanning decades, Dan Navarro is perhaps best known as songwriter for artists as diverse as Jackson Browne, Keb’ Mo’ and Pat Benatar (Grammy-nominated classic “We Belong”). A multi-talented performer, Dan is a singer, a songwriter and a voice actor in major motion pictures, TV, & commercials...including last year's hit Disney Film ENCANTO.
Dan’s songs are rich with insight and life experience, delivered straight-up, with honesty, grace and heart, in his moving and expressive baritone voice. Having released a dozen albums (solo & as Lowen&Navarro,) Dan released his first solo album “Shed My Skin” in 2019. Horizon Line, his current release, was produced by multiple Grammy®-winner Jim Scott (Tom Petty, Wilco, Dixie Chicks, as well as the first five Lowen&Navarro albums.)
