Scaled Back LH JAMS Scheduled for Aug. 15

LOCK HAVEN – LH JAMS had big plans for its fifth annual event later this month but COVID-19 has caused some serious alterations to its schedule. But LH JAMS Director Steve Getz announced Saturday that JAMS will go on: ·

Double Your Pleasure …. Double Your Fun!

Motown and the Blues Coming to LH JAMS on August 15!

The Clinton County Arts Council has been committed to bring exceptional live music and art to Lock Haven every summer during the LH JAMS festival.

This year we needed to make several changes to the festival format due to the Covid pandemic. Our scheduled jazz performances had to be moved to August of 2021 since the Art & All that Jazz reception was cancelled and the evening performances at local restaurants and pubs would not be practical due to limited seating inside each venue.

Even though LH JAMS will be very different, we are excited to announce two extremely talented bands. York Street Hustle and The Hex Highway Blues band will be playing on two stages during the afternoon and evening. In total there will be nearly 5 hours of exceptional music.

For safety reasons, we will not have art, craft or food vendors this year but there will be cafe seating at City restaurants during the day and evening. Enjoy food and drinks outside while listening to Hex Highway from 4 to 6 pm on Main Street. After dinner, head over to the river stage to hear Philly’s premier Motown tribute band … York Street Hustle from 6:30 to 9 pm. Both bands are simply world class and perform the quality of music that is synonymous with the LH JAMS festival.

In a year that most events have been canceled, we felt it was important to do something. The CCAC is excited to offer an abbreviated version of LH JAMS while doing so in a safe and responsible manner. Please come and support downtown businesses and the arts on August 15. We encourage you to practice CDC guidelines for a fun and safe afternoon and evening!!!

This is going to be a fantastic event if we all work together!!!
