17 Years of Jazz at Drew

At the historic Leimert Park "Black Township," banners and pamphlets were all over in advance for the 17th Annual Jazz Festival at Drew University in Los Angeles. It has become a tradition as Jazz at Drew has been one of Southland's most treasured musical event, taking a look at the line-up for this year's festival. The two day event (October 6-7) had a line-up of local jazz ensembles and some jazz greats.

Folks at the World Stage Performance Gallery, including the Leirmert Park All-Stars Band whose all session drum beat entertains the neigborhood every Sunday afternoon, performed to kick-off the two day event. Sponsored by Honda, the event was founded in 1991 with the lofty goal of promoting and training medical professionals who're underprivileged.
