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 our Jazzin' science pub, "Travels with a Wayward Whale: A Beluga Rescue," at 7 p.m. in Phelps Auditorium. Executive Vice President of Animals Tim Binder will share how Shedd’s Animal Response Team, sponsored by Dawn, helped rescue a stranded beluga whale in Canada. Then VP of Animal Health Dr. Bill Van Bonn will address some of the scientific reasons why the animal may have become lost and why it needed to be moved. 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.
