Free
On Friday, August 16, 2024, at 7:00 pm, come to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center’s Spirit of Discovery Outdoor Stage for a free summer show. Be entertained by the Prairie Winds Jazz Ensemble as they perform a concert that will bring the Swing era to life.
This 17-piece group under the direction of Kevin Linder will play some patriotic medleys and swing tunes, a mix of big band classics from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. Musicians from across northwest Iowa, most within a 30-mile radius of Akron, perform in the band.
Admission is free. The audience will be positioned in a grassy area of Center’s campus, so they are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets, as well as refreshments. In case of rain, the show will be moved inside to the auditorium.
