The West Michigan Jazz Society continues its “Jazz in the Park(ing Lot)” dinner and music fundraising series Tuesday, Sept, 22, from 5-7:30 p.m., at Noto’s Old World Italian Dining and featuring the Mary Rademacher Quartet starting at 5:30 p.m.
The quartet features Mary Rademacher on vocals, John Gist on saxes, Tom Hagen on piano, Elgin Vines pop bass and Cherie Lynn on drums and vocals.
Jazz fans will be able to order special jazz picnic meals from Noto’s with on-line ordering pricing of $15 for pre-orders received by noon on Monday, Sept. 21. (On-line orders received after noon on Sept. 21 will be at $18.) Place your order from Noto’s here. (Select “choose a menu.” Then select “Jazz in the Parking Lot”. Then place your order. You can also call to make your order at 616-493-6686.)
Alcoholic Beverages will be available at Noto’s and may be consumed in special designated areas. But you may not bring your own alcohol on the premises including the parking lot.
“Since we cannot host our traditional Monday night summer series, “Jazz in the Park”, we will be sponsoring local musicians and jazz venues in West Michigan to host safe and socially distant outdoor concerts,” according to a previous WMJS statement.
The event will also be live streamed from the WMJS Facebook page, if you are not comfortable with attending in person, according to the statement. A digital donation jar to show your support for WMJS is also available here securely through PayPal.
