Yes, it was hot, both on the stage and off. But our community showed up with their lawn chairs, found shade under the trees and the recording artists put on a fabulous show for them.
We want to thank our fabulous sponsors: Meharry Vanderbilt Alliance, Nashville General Hospital, BAJA/TSR Records, WeGo, Erica Gilmore Metroplitan Nashville Trustee, Fast Signs, The Tennessee Tribune, MCA & the Nashville Scene. Their support makes it possible to have the festival, so, thank you, thank you, thank you! Jazz fans got a real treat and loved the Annual WFSK Presents: The Fisk Food & Jazz Festival in June. With historic Jubilee Hall as the backdrop, you couldn't help but feel the music and the vibe. Families, friends, WFSK listeners, and supporters have said overwhelmingly "please continue to have this festival, the music is always excellent and you always have a great variety the food trucks to chose from." |
