This series takes place in Red Bankโs Riverside Gardens Park on Thursday evenings during the summer months. Weather permitting, our audience could top 500+ people. They bring chairs, blankets, picnic baskets, bottles of wine etc., for an engaging summer's eve of great music. It is a widely diverse group of all ages and cultures including families, individuals, students, and children who enjoy the free concerts in front of a picturesque setting facing the Navesink River. Jazz In The Park is curated and produced by the non-profit Jazz Arts Project in cooperation with the Red Bank Department of Parks and Recreation....
