Music that feeds your soul, conversations that enlighten, and food that comforts—there’s no better way of celebrating our native son’s legacy and 117th birthday than at this year's annual Satchmo Summerfest. Come out to the Jazz Museum at the Mint (400 Esplanade Ave.) on August 3-5 to enjoy three days of local meals and treats (nothing over $12, by the way!) as legendary and Satchmo-inspired musicians gift audiences with simply good music. Daily admission is free for children 12 and under and only $5 for adults.
