“Jews, Blues and All That Jazz” is a summer collaboration across cultures here in Chattanooga.

It begins on Sunday, starting at 2 PM, at the Jewish Cultural Center with the opening of an art exhibition and a CD release.

The series continues with Jazz in the Lounge concerts at Barking Legs Theater through the end of next month - and a film screening at the Bessie Smith Cultural Center the weekend after Independence Day.
