17th Annual Stan Michels Jazz Concert

Join us for a summer afternoon of live jazz at the 17th Annual Stan Michels Jazz Festival, honoring the legacy of longtime NYC Council Member Stan Michels. This free outdoor concert features a stellar lineup of local jazz greats in one of Manhattan’s most scenic settings.

The festival opens with the Kobie Dozier Quartet, known for their dynamic sound rooted in classic jazz traditions with a modern edge.

Headlining the event is Marjorie Eliot and her Ensemble, celebrated citywide for her legendary “Parlor Jazz” concerts, which she has hosted every Sunday for more than a decade—rain or shine—without a single break. From her apartment on the northern tip of Harlem, Eliot has created a cultural haven for jazz lovers, and she brings that spirit to the Stan Michels Promenade every year.
