For as long as animators have been bringing stories and characters to life, they have looked to jazz composers to lend a sense of energy, improvisation, and whimsy to their creations.

Featuring 40 incredibly talented local musicians in the CFCArts Big Band, Hand-Drawn Jazz will be an exploration and a celebration of the intersection of jazz and animation. With music from so many of your favorites like The Pink Panther, Toy Story, The Incredibles, Cowboy Bebop, and Encanto, this will be a family-friendly musical experience full of great music and a few creative surprises.

Featuring Bare Necessities, Into the Unknown, Linus and Lucy, Friend Like Me, and more.
