Hot Jazz for Cool Kids!

Children and families are invited to this outstanding series of free performances by Indy’s leading jazz musicians. They are a great way to share jazz music with children that will be fun for everyone! These hour-long programs are presented by the Learning Curve at Central Library in partnership with The Indianapolis Jazz Foundation and Indy Jazz Fest. This series is made possible by Friends of the Library through gifts to The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation. This program will feature a performance by the Charlie Ballantine Group. The group is an eclectic instrumental jazz ensemble whose music draws from the jazz, folk, Americana and blues traditions of the Midwest. Following the 2015 release of “Green,” Charlie Ballantine was voted “Best Jazz Musician” of Indianapolis by NUVO Magazine.
