In its second year, the Moonlight Jazz Society looks forward to supporting an amazing lineup of touring jazz artists at the Vibrant Vine’s cozy wine and meal-centred environment, and adds a Sunday series to its efforts with all ages emerging artist pop-up concerts at the French Cultural Centre in downtown Kelowna.
