Thursday, June 26, is the first of only three very special Jazz Age Garden Parties<\/a> here at NYBG! This summer, we’re whisking you away to the world of Groundbreakers<\/em><\/a> with the classic jazz of the Roaring Twenties\u2014and, of course, specialty cocktails to set the mood. With only three chances to spend a cool summer evening in the glitzy glamor of the Garden, don’t waste a moment reserving your tickets now.<\/p>\n

The season’s unbeatable music comes courtesy of Michael Arenella & His Dreamland Orchestra<\/a>. Conductor, composer, musician, and singer Michael Arenella and his seven-piece band are the premier Jazz Age dance band in New York, and the originators of the celebrated Governor’s Island Lawn Party. Now he’s bringing his swinging style to NYBG! Dance lessons will be taking place from 6:30 to 7:15 p.m., so you can dance the Charleston and other styles under the stars.
