A Brush With Jazz

Saturday, September 20, 2025 | Downtown Collinsville
9:00 AM – 8:30 PM

Collinsville’s beloved A Brush With Jazz returns with an exciting new look! This year, the celebration expands into a full-day festival, filling Main Street with the sights and sounds of art and jazz from morning to evening.

Live Jazz All Day-
Thanks to Taylor Entertainment, a stage will be set right in the heart of downtown where talented jazz performers will keep the music flowing from start to finish. Enjoy the rhythm, swing, and soul that only live jazz can bring.
We're bring in internationally know Jazz greats like:
The Booker Gillespie Trio
The Michele Warren Duo
The Darrel Christopher Trio
The Cynthia Simmons Quartet
The Gemstar Carribbean Steel Band

We also hope to have local students performing on stage early in the day.

Art on Main-
Artists and makers will line Main Street with their paintings, photography, and handmade creations. There is no cost for artists to display, making this the perfect opportunity to discover local talent and take home a one-of-a-kind treasure. Artists can sign up online to reserve a space.
