Set among the palms and pathways of our neighborhood, the festival invites you to slow down, wander, listen, and connect. Local visual artists will line the walkways with paintings, photography, mixed media, and handcrafted works—each booth offering a chance to meet the artist, hear their story, and experience the art up close.

Throughout the day, live jazz drifts through the park—warm, inviting, and effortlessly cool. From smooth swing and classic standards to modern grooves and soulful improvisation, our lineup features outstanding local jazz musicians performing in an intimate, outdoor setting where every seat feels close to the music.
