Oakhurst Jazz Nights will be moving INSIDE the Solarium tonight because of the wind and cold. Also, Joe Gransden and his band will be replacing Diane Durrett because flights to the ATL were cancelled (she was at the Grammy on the Hill event last night).

Joe Gransden played with the big bands of Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller right out of high school. He has gone on to play with Barry White, The Moody Blues, Kenny Rogers, The Temptations, Aretha Franklin, The Whispers, and so many more from New York to the ATL! Joe is a local who lights up stages weekly in the area.

Oakhurst Jazz Nights are FREE concerts every Thursday in April from 7-9pm at the Solarium, 321 W. Hill Street.

And one more fun event for this week, shared by a community member:

Hello Neighbors - I realize a number of folks that live in Oakhurst attend Winnona Park so we wanted to make sure you were aware of the WPNA Luminaira Holiday Event set for tomorrow.

Hope to see folks at the Oakhurst lantern parade and tree lighting this Sunday Dec 11th. Festivities start at 5pm at the Oakhurst Cooperative Preschool (830 W College) for lantern making. At 6pm, the parade will head down Mead St. to Harmony Park to gather with neighbors for the Community Choir's choral concert and lighting of the gorgeous tree provided by historic Scout Troop 107. Hot drinks will be provided by Kavarna, and jingle bracelets and ornaments provided by ONA. This is a great community effort and fun time to get into the holiday spirit.
