Five Points Washington presents a free outdoor jazz concert by the Harry Tonchev Trio

Five Points Washington presents the second in a pair of free outdoor jazz concerts on the south lawn of the facility when the Harry Tonchev Trio performs September 11. The Jazz @ Five Points series is the latest offering from Five Points Washington as a part of its Live @ Five Points programming, featuring live performances at the facility, located at 360 N. Wilmor Road in Washington. “We’re constantly looking for new ways to promote the performing arts,” said Mike Schulte, event venue manager for Five Points Washington. “There has been growing interest among members in the Washington community to bring live jazz performances to the area. Our venue provides an excellent location where community members can experience some of the area’s best talent.” The Harry Tonchev Trio is comprised of Andy Crawford on bass, Joe Miller on percussion and Tonchev on guitar. In addition, saxophonist Dan Burke joins the group for this performance. The concert is free and open to the public. Gates open at 6 PM, and the concert runs from 6:30 PM to 8 PM. A cash bar will be available from 6 PM to 8 PM. Limited tables and seating will be available on a first come, first served basis, and attendees are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs. As long as there are no changes in state regulations, masks will not be required as long as social distancing can be maintained. Five Points Washington opened in 2007 and is a self-sustaining, not-for-profit complex that uses fitness center user fees, rental revenue and event admission sales to finance day-to-day operations. In addition to its new outdoor event space, the facility houses a 1,020-seat performing arts center, event/banquet/meeting rooms, a fitness center/gym and an aquatics center.
