Pbj & Jazz at the Topiary Park


“PBJ & Jazz at the Topiary Park: Jazz for Kids and Families” is a new summer home for the Jazz Arts Group’s (JAG) fall/winter PBJ series to be relocated at the Jazz Academy in the newly restored Lincoln Theatre. The summer series is a collaborative effort between JAG, Friends of the Topiary Park and Friends of the Library.

The concerts are free, and guests are encouraged to bring a picnic lunch and a blanket. The Topiary Park concert themes are tied into the themes presented at family story time at the Main Library from 11 to 11:30 a.m.

The Topiary Park is located at 480 E. Town St. in downtown Columbus. The Main Library is located at 96 S. Grant Ave. In the event of rain, concerts will be held inside the Main Library.
