Salsa, Jazz Performance to Benefit Public Radio

KCLU-FM (88.3) is sponsoring an evening of salsa music and jazz Sunday at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza.

Grammy Award nominee Bobby Rodriguez and his 23-piece Latin jazz orchestra will headline the concert, to be held at 7 p.m. in the Scherr Forum. The Oxnard High School jazz band will give a free performance on the grounds outside the arts plaza beginning at 5:30 p.m. Those with tickets also will hear a jazz combo, provided by the Los Angeles Jazz Society’s Bill Green Mentorship Program, performing in the lobby before the show.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the public radio station’s general operations.

Tickets, $23 to $32, are available at the Civic Arts Plaza box office, 2100 Thousand Oaks Blvd., or by calling KCLU at 493-3900.
