Presented in collaboration with Viernes Culturales, this special Latin Jazz Edition brings the sounds and communities of Little Havana and Historic Overtown together at the Ward.The evening features JT6, led by Juan Turros, a professional saxophonist, music educator, and founding member of the Miami band Suénalo. Turros studied music at Florida International University and the University of Miami and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Music Performance with a Jazz Emphasis from FIU. His ensemble moves between Latin jazz, mambo, funk, and house music, pairing jazz improvisation with rhythms made for dancing. The sextet will perform two live sets.Jazz Under a Simple Tree is Hampton Art Lovers’ premier cultural gathering series. It showcases local jazz musicians, brings straight-ahead jazz back to Overtown, and brings people together through live music, art, and the neighborhood’s cultural stories.The series is anchored this fall by Hampton Art Lovers’ exhibition In the Paint, featuring Ernie Barnes and an installation dedicated to Paul Robeson. Barnes’s figures give movement and rhythm a visual form; Robeson’s life connects artistic performance with cultural leadership. Guests can experience the exhibition alongside the music.The conversation between Cuban music and jazz reaches back to jazz’s beginnings. New Orleans pianist Jelly Roll Morton called the Cuban rhythmic presence in his music the “Spanish tinge,” drawing on patterns including the tresillo and habanera. Later, musicians such as Mario Bauzá, Machito, and Chano Pozo brought Afro-Cuban rhythms and jazz improvisation together in new ways, helping establish Afro-Cuban jazz.Evening schedule7:00 PM — Doors open7:30–8:15 PM — First set8:15–8:45 PM — Intermission8:45–9:30 PM — Second setSponsored by Art of Black Miami / Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau, Southeast Overtown/Park West CRA, FIU Public Humanities Lab and the Simkins Family Trust.

We honor the heart and soul of Fine Artists and make their work accessible to anyone who loves art. Hampton Art Lovers believes that understanding culture through experiencing the arts is becoming increasingly vital in the modern world. We live in an information economy, a world in which technology can provide access to products and services that have been previously inaccessible. Intense, experiential learning is the currency of the knowledge economy and lovers of art do this naturally. Hampton Art Lovers believes that through culture and arts education we can improve our communities and communities all over the world.Historic Ward Rooming HouseThe Historic Ward Rooming House is supported by the City of Miami SE Overtown/Park West CRA and operated by Hampton Art Lovers. The Historic Ward Rooming House Gallery has a rich socially significant history. It is an honor to bring this exhibition to this space. Built in the 1900s by an African-American family with Bahamian roots (Shaddrack and Victoria Ward), the Ward Rooming House served as a home for both African American and Native Americans who needed a safe place to sleep at night. In the 1940s and 50s it was known for hosting various civic groups and became the “Club House”. Built in the era of Overtown's historic heyday, when it was known as \"Colored Town,\" the Ward Rooming House stands as a tribute to the history of one of the oldest historic Black community in the City of Miami. As one of the few remaining buildings of its time, a seemingly ordinary rooming house becomes significant for the larger role it serves in preserving the history and architecture of Miami's Black community. It was designated a historic site by the City of Miami in 2006 and fully restored in 2010. Now it serves as a gallery and event space." } ] } ] ```
