On
Sunday 4th August, St John Fisher College will welcome the local
community by opening the gates to classic car enthusiasts and music lovers abound,
holding inaugural event, Jags and Jazz.
With
expansive land, and a Principal who embraces unique opportunities, the College
boasts the perfect venue for an event of this kind.
“We like to
think outside the square at St John Fisher College, always seeking
opportunities to showcase the unique qualities of our College”.
“The physical
attributes of the College, with 15 hectares of land, lends itself to an event
of this kind and we felt that it would be a great backdrop for beautiful cars
and great music, says College Principal, Ms Cathy Galvin.
Ms Galvin
says it’s a pleasure to host an event that warmly embraces classic cars of all
kinds but in particular Car Club exhibitors like, ‘Old Girls on the Road’ who
are all about quashing traditional roles and celebrating a women’s car culture.
Showcasing
a range of Classic Cars, including Jaguars, Corvettes, Chevy, Porsches and
Mustangs, the event will kick off with the jazzy sounds of Robyn Brown Quartet,
supported by St John Fisher College’s very own Rock Band and St Patrick’s
College’s Big Band.
A
range of local Food Trucks, including Aspley local Steve Murray of Vintage
Mobile Coffee will service the event from 10am-2pm, with a sectioned off 18+
bar available for the adults.
Kids
will be kept entertained with face painting and a jumping castle.
Children
and School students receive free entry to the event with adult tickets at an
affordable price of $10 with all proceeds going to St John Fisher College
Bursary Fund. Tickets can be purchased online at www.trybooking.com/497942
