The West Carteret High School Bands and Ensembles invites the community to attend its annual fundraiser, “An Evening of Jazz,” on Friday, February 27, at 7:00 PM at the Dunes Club.

The evening will feature jazz performances by West Carteret High School student musicians, including the jazz band and small ensembles. Proceeds from the event will support the band program by helping offset costs for instruction, equipment, and performance opportunities.

Director of Bands, Andy Wright, emphasized the importance of community support in sustaining a strong music program. “This event is something we look forward to every year. It’s a great opportunity to showcase the students’ progress and connect with the community that supports the program.”

Guests will enjoy live jazz, refreshments, a silent auction, 50-50 drawing, and a wine pull, all in an intimate setting while supporting local student musicians.

Community members, alumni, and supporters are encouraged to attend. Tickets may be purchased in advance at:
