It’s summer! Time for DC locals and visitors in the know to head to the National Gallery of Art’s popular summer concert series, Jazz in the Garden.
These free concerts offer the perfect opportunity to relax with a picnic and enjoy top local and regional artists performing a diverse mix of jazz, from swing to progressive to Latin!
This week hear traditional jazz by the Dixie Power Trio.
In addition to light fare and full beverage service available inside the Pavilion Café or from carts on the patios, savvy concertgoers can skip the lines by preordering “The Great American Picnic Basket,” presented in celebration of the reopened American paintings galleries in the West Building, which display some 150 paintings by virtually every important figure in American painting from the 18th to the early 20th century.
