When Jackie Robinson broke Major League Baseball’s color-barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 he not only changed the game but America too. But before Robinson wore number 42 for the Dodgers, he wore number 5 for the Kansas City Monarchs. Jazz & Jackie celebrates his Kansas City professional baseball roots and his unbridled love of jazz, an art form that got its soul in Kansas City. The event features a soul-stirring concert by five-time Grammy Award-winning songstress, LALAH HATHAWAY.

JAZZ & JACKIE is made possible through the generous support of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, State of Missouri, NTDF, Hill’s Pet Nutrition ,Evergy and RNB 106.9 FM.
