The second annual Gotham Jazz Festival was held in the beautiful Player's Club on April 8, 2018. The partnership between Prohibition Productions and the New York Hot Jazz Camp ensured students from the camp could showcase their talent in various concerts during the first half of the festival - images from those performances can be found in
this album.
