You will have to hurry in if you have not caught a show at Birch Creek Music Performance Center yet this summer. The Egg Harbor institution will begin the final session of its academy season with the second group of big band jazz students with students and new staff members moving in on Sunday. The first performance by its jazz ambassadors will take place at the Jacksonport Farmer’s Market on Tuesday, and the first full performance inside Birch Creek’s concert barn on August 3rd. Across all of its sessions, Executive Director Mona Christenson says the audiences have been adoring the concerts and have been coming in bigger numbers as well.

The second Big Band Jazz session runs through August 12th. If you cannot make it to a show at Birch Creek Music Performance Center, the jazz ambassadors will have gigs in Jacksonport, Sister Bay, Ellison Bay, Baileys Harbor, Egg Harbor, and Fish Creek.
