A Perfect Evening for Jazz in the Garden
More than 100 friends and supporters gathered on Tuesday, June 3 for Jazz in the Garden, Health Advocates for Older People’s annual spring celebration. Held in the beautiful, bloom-filled garden of the Church of the Holy Trinity on East 88th Street, the evening was graced with mild weather, great music, and wonderful company.
Guests enjoyed delicious hors d’oeuvres, a signature Elderflower Spritz cocktail, and live jazz from the talented Ethan Mann Trio, whose music set a relaxed and joyful tone for the night.
