Richmond’s Arts District, set to a jazz soundtrack.  

Produced by JMI as a prelude to the Richmond Jazz & Music Festival, Straight No Chaser activates Richmond's Arts District through a series of intimate live jazz performances hosted at restaurants, hotels, and gathering spaces across downtown. 

The event creates opportunities for visitors to experience Richmond's vibrant music scene while supporting local businesses and building momentum for festival weekend. Through thoughtful programming and event coordination, JMI transforms the city's cultural assets into memorable community experiences.
