A Celebration of Sound, Soul, and Community – Bringing Garth’s dream to life, one note at a time!
Introducing Jazz Fest 2025: A New Tradition Begins – September 12-14, 2025
One of our initiatives for this year is the development of our first Jazz Fest here in Three Oaks. Our founder, the late Garth Taylor, set a goal for SAM to create a Jazz Fest that would take place over a weekend and would bring both local and nationally recognized jazz artists to Harbor Country.
That dream has become a reality, and it will take place September 12 -14, 2025, and will include performances at The Acorn Theater, the Vickers Theater, and at Commune + Market in downtown Three Oaks. We have secured renown jazz artists from Chicago as well as from Harbor Country to create an exciting, dynamic and entertaining event that will include a headlining jazz retrospective at The Acorn with a 7-piece jazz band that will get you dancing, two headliners at The Vickers on Saturday evening and wrapping up with a smooth Jazz Sunday Brunch at Commune + Market.
