On Thursday, July 20, 2023, the Shuswap’s largest Heritage destination, R.J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum, is proud to partner with the Salmon Arm Jazz Club for Burger and Jazz in the Park!
Enjoy a gourmet burger with all the fixings from the Village’s licenced Sprig of Heather restaurant and some of the finest jazz in the Shuswap.
Tickets for the evening are $35.00 and can be purchased at R.J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum, or call 250-832-5243 to charge by phone. Gates open, and music starts at 5:00 pm. Burger service is from 5:30-6:30 pm. Local beer, wine and cider are available to purchase.
The evening will feature the Chris Peterson Quartet, with Chris Peterson on tenor saxophone, Colin Spence on piano, Jake McIntyre-Paul on bass, and Gareth Seys on drums. Chris got his start in our local high school music program and credits band teachers Brian Prat-Johnson, Jim Johnston and Gordon Waters with inspiring him to pursue music seriously. He later attended Vancouver Island University (formerly Malaspina University-College), where he honed his skills. Lessons with highly respected local sax player Sandy Cameron also helped shape Chris’ approach to the instrument. The result is a brilliant saxophonist whose playing reflects his respect for the history of his instrument in bebop and a keen sense for more modern approaches.
R.J. Haney Heritage Village and Museum is a registered not-for-profit charitable organization that proudly preserves the history of Salmon Arm and the surrounding areas. The Salmon Arm Jazz Club is a volunteer, non-profit organization hosting jazz performances by local and visiting artists. The Jazz Club sees this summer's performances as a step in developing more music entertainment options in our community and a way to support R.J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum with the amazing projects and educational programs at the Heritage Village & Museum.
