A big thank you to all of our sponsors for supporting our first jazz festival!
I was wondering if the Mosaic Does Jazz scheduled events are still taking place during the City Workers’ Strike. I didn’t hear any music wafting over from the park… I don’t live too far away… yesterday (Canada Day) and was curious as to whether this is still a go or not.
Thanks,

I have been going every week to the Mosaic jazz event and it’s been absolutely wonderful! I have marked it down on my calendar and am planning on sending out the event schedule to my friends.
Thanks for all the organizational and creative efforts to invigorate this part of the east end.. My husband, pre-schooler and new baby have enjoyed summer evening picnicking while listening to the concerts. What a treat! And it’s caused us to notice some of the businesses along the Danforth that we had never noticed before.
