JazzYYC, Calgary's Jazz Collaborative, announces its annual Summer Festival, presenting a wide variety of musicians from across the World, across Canada, and from here in Calgary.

This show is a departure in every sense of the word from what you may have come to expect from Mary-Leigh.  With it she takes herself and the viewer on a quest. As her paintings took shape she seized the opportunity to realize a lifelong dream and has written a story around them. She has created her first children’s book…  for adults. Annette’s beautiful calligraphy completed the project and now they look forward to the possibility of a second book already in the works.

Date and Time:
Friday, June 6, 2025, 7:00 PM  9:00 PM

Venue Name and Address:
9351 118 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T5G 0N3
