Jazzin' at the Shedd
12:00 AM           
Jazz. Cocktails. The lake. Fireworks. And 32,000 animals. That's Jazzin' at the Shedd! Jazzin' is the perfect way to celebrate summer! Take in live music while you enjoy the best views of Chicago, fireworks and after-hours access to our aquatic residents. Tonight's musical entertainment will be provided by Detour JazFunk, Peter Oprisko Jazz Trio, William Boris Duo and Reginald T. McCants. Don't forget to join us for a Jazzin' Science Pub at 7 p.m. in Phelps Auditorium. Meet Shedd postdoctoral research associate Andy Kough and learn about his work in an informal setting where you can relax, enjoy a beverage and ask questions. In this Science Pub, it’s “conch-servation” in the Bahamas! Follow Andy on his tow board through crystalline tropical waters where he conducted population surveys of conchs. These familiar giant sea snails with the pink-lined shells are inseparable from the Bahamas’ economy, ecology and culture—and they’re in danger of disappearing. Want even more Jazzin' fun? Enjoy an evening cruise and get a front-row view of the Navy Pier fireworks display. Adults 21+ can join us for a Shoreline Cruise! See all the details in the tickets link above! Jazzin' at the Shedd is sponsored by Chase.
