December 17, 2016, Saturday - Christmas Jazz and Holiday Haiku with Jim Barnard at Boom Island Brewing

Time: 6:00pm 9:00pm

Location: Boom Island Brewing, 2014 Washington Avenue N

Christmas Jazz and Holiday Haiku with Jim Barnard

Boom Island’s own Taproom Manager Jim, AKA “Haiku Jim,” will be reading his holiday haiku poems at 6pm and hoping people find them funny, followed by Boom Room Jazz stalwarts The Brad Bellows Quintet, featuring Larry Hillman, who will play a special holiday set at 7pm.

Jim intends to provide a little ray of sunshine during these stressful holidays.  His hilariously dark haiku poems might lead one to believe that he hates the holiday.  One look at the taproom décor will tell you the opposite it true.  Jim’s friends and family know these poems well.  This is the first time they will be aired out in a public setting in the form of a live reading.
