Sequim High School’s annual Jazz Dinner Dance is set for Saturday, Jan. 16, at the high school’s cafeteria, 601 N. Sequim Ave.

The evening combines the talent of young musicians and Sequim’s renowned Stardust Big Band.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and the music starts at 6:30 p.m.

Tickets are $15 per person or $25 per couple, available at the Sequim High School office, 601 N. Sequim Ave.; Brisk Printing, 243 E. Washington St.; Sequim Physical Therapy, 500 W. Fir St. Suite A; and at the door.

The Sequim High School Jazz band, directed by Washington Music Educators Hall of Fame recipient Vern Fosket, opens up the evening before the 18-member Stardust Band takes to the stage. Dancers of all ages can take to the dance floor.

Included in the ticket price is a full Hawaiian-themed dinner, including pulled pork or chicken, rice and salad. And, new this year, one attendee will win a free sitting with Ernst Fine Art Photography.

The Jazz Dinner Dance, sponsored by the Band Boosters, supports Sequim High School’s band and color guard programs. More than 100 students perform throughout the year in Sequim, including the Irrigation Festival parade, and at other venues such as the Husky Band Day and Macy’s parade in Seattle and the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Idaho; plus every other year at Disneyland’s Heritage Festival in Anaheim, Calif. This spring, the band and color guard will travel to Spokane to perform in the Lilac Festival Parade.
