The 34th Jazz in June concert series concludes today with a 7 p.m. performance by Sam Greenfield.
This multi-instrumentalist has shared the stage with such superstars as Ed Sheeran, John Legend and Mariah Carey. Combining jazz, pop and funk, Greenfield captivates listeners with his irresistible melodies, vibrant energy and infectious personality.
The free public concerts begin at 7 p.m. each Tuesday in June in the Sheldon Sculpture Garden, west of Sheldon Museum of Art. A market offers food and drinks from 5 to 9 p.m. each Tuesday. The concert series is produced by the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, with support from the Lied Center for Performing Arts.
Each concert features two sets of music from 7 to 7:45 p.m. and 8 to 8:45 p.m., respectively, with a 15-minute intermission.
New this year is the Kids Zone, hosted by the Lincoln Children’s Museum, which will allow children to play and make new friends as they listen to the music.
Jazz in June, which is Nebraska’s longest-running free concert series, will feature some of the top jazz artists in the region and nation throughout the month.
While Jazz in June performances are free, attendees are encouraged to make a minimum donation of $10 per family to help ensure the future of the program. Alcohol and pets are not permitted.
Individuals or organizations who would like to make financial contributions and/or serve as volunteers or board members are encouraged to contact Jazz in June at jazzinjune@unl.edu.
Reserved seating is available via the Lied Center’s website for $80 for all four concerts or $25 per show.
