The City of Irvine invites the community to Jazz in the Palm Court, a three-part series that features gifted, local musicians weaving a compelling sonic narrative echoing the diverse voices and textures explored in Natural Language: Contemporary Book Art, now on view at the Great Park Gallery. The Palm Court Arts Complex will be transformed into a stage for a live symphony of complex blues and swing notes that define the evocative sound of jazz.

• Saturday, February 17, 1–3 p.m. 
• Saturday, March 9, 1–3 p.m. 
•  Saturday, April 20, 1–3 p.m. 

Enjoy a kaleidoscope of sound and artistry under the palm trees. Bring folding chairs and blankets for seating around the Gallery and Palm Court; no advance registration is needed.
