An Animated Tribute

Jazz and cinema are two art forms that developed in tandem, and the Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque celebrates this relationship in what’s been dubbed the Double-C JazzFilmFest. This first-ever jazz film series is dedicated to the memory of WCPN’s Jazz Tracks host Bobby Jackson. The series runs until June 21 and serves as a fitting prelude to the Tri-C JazzFest. The animated shorts of Mr. Magoo creator, John Hubley, will play tonight on restored 35mm color prints. The scores in these Oscar-winning films feature work by Dizzy Gillespie, Quincy Jones and others. Tonight’s screening takes place at 5:15 and the film shows again tomorrow at 5 p.m. Tickets are $9.
