Times Union Center of Performing Arts Terry Theater

Jazz Poetry Café is a musical performance and spoken word event currently held on First Fridays in Jacksonville, Florida. We are passionate about music and spoken word poetry as genres of entertainment, a tool to increase the level of literacy in society, a means of livelihood for the artists and entrepreneurs and a medium of communication among people NOT ONLY in Jacksonville, but across the globe! Our dream is to promote artists so we can create a means of employment where they can earn a living from their amazing performances and written materials. Jazz Poetry Café is the epitome of elegance personified through rich culture in a inspirational atmosphere! It's a place where you can safely let go of all of your inhibitions and enjoy yourself! So come out and enjoy the soulful ambience with the sounds of a LIVE BAND providing Smooth Jazz, Neo Soul, R & B and Great Singing, as well as, Profound Poetry, and Delicious Food!
