The Oak Lawn Public Library, 9427 S. Raymond Ave., will host the grand opening of its exhibit, “Jazz Music Legends of Oak Lawn,” on Saturday, April 27, from 6 to 8 p.m.
The exhibit celebrates one of the biggest high school jazz competitions in the country, the Oak Lawn Jazz Festival, which was held from 1960 to 1986 at Oak Lawn Community High School. The festival hosted high school jazz bands from all across Illinois, as well as many highly esteemed Chicago-native professional jazz performers.
The grand opening will include light refreshments and the musical stylings of Oak Lawn Community High School’s current music students.
The exhibit will also pay homage to rock ’n’ roll, featuring concert photos by local photographer AJ Roccaforte, who worked with both REO Speedwagon and Styx, bands with deep roots in Oak Lawn.
The exhibit will be on display throughout the year with musical performances from a variety of jazz groups and guided tours of the exhibit. The first tour will be held Wednesday, June 19, from 2 to 3 p.m. No registration required.
