Michelle Coltrane, daughter of jazz legend John Coltrane, will entertain guests at a benefit concert April 25 to support the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation‘s revitalization work in southeastern San Diego.
The fundraising event will support the center’s core initiatives, including resident engagement, redevelopment, economic opportunity, and place-making through arts and culture.
According to her website, Coltrane and guitarist Shea Welsh are writing new material, and arranging new and classic standards, to create a unique modern/retro sound.
The event is scheduled for April 25 with a 6:30 p.m. reception, 7:30 p.m. program, and 8 p.m. dinner and entertainment. Single tickets start at $45. Tickets and more information are available at http://jacobspresents.com.
Founded in 1995, the center is a nonprofit foundation that works in partnership with the Jacobs Family Foundation and residents of southeastern San Diego to build a stronger community through entrepreneurial projects, hands-on learning relationships, and the creative investment of resources.
