When Jackie Robinson broke Major League Baseball’s color-barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 he not only changed the game but America too. But before Robinson wore number 42 for the Dodgers, he wore number 5 for the Kansas City Monarchs.
Jazz & Jackie celebrates his Kansas City professional baseball roots and his unbridled love of jazz, an art form that got its soul in Kansas City.
The event features a pair of soul-stirring, soulful concert performances by Jarrod Lawson, with special guest, Raquel Rodriquez.
JAZZ & JACKIE is made possible through the generous support of the State of Missouri, NTDF, Evergy and Hallmark.
Event proceeds benefit the NLBM. Eventbrite service fees apply.
