Eyes On Carson: Jazz and Beyond begins in Carson City
Carson City's annual citywide Jazz and Beyond Festival opened Friday evening with a garden party at the Bliss Mansion in downtown Carson City.
There was also art on the porch featured Friday afternoon at Bliss Mansion with an art sale held by the Carson City Arts Initiative and the Nevada Artists Association.
The Triple Treble flute trio got the music started at 4:30 p.m. Friday afternoon.
Cherie and John Shipley and the Take This Band followed as the headliner, beginning at 6:30 p.m. in the Bliss Mansion garden.
The band featured Cherie Shipley on vocals, John Shipley at the keys, Paul Covarelli on guitar, Doug Coomler on saxophone, and Steve Self at the drums.
Friday's garden party was the start of more than 60 Jazz and Beyond events at multiple venues around Carson City over the next two weeks.
