Students jammed with top jazz musicians during Summer Jazz Camp June 5-9 at Southern Wesleyan University.

This year’s camp drew students from across South Carolina and Georgia. Organizer and SWU music professor Greg Day says students get to work with jazz performers from as far away as California who are kid-friendly and promote a relaxed, non-competitive environment. The camp finale was a student performance in Folger Fine Arts Auditorium on the university’s main campus in Central.
