| | | | | | Lafayette Community Foundation (LCF) board member Dick Holt presented a $2,500 LCF grant last month to Mo Levich, who, at the time, was leading the Dominant Seven jazz group that was helping to celebrate the 90th birthday of our beloved Ed Stokes at Diablo Foods. Members of the Dominant Seven include Ryan Kapoor, Isabell Tankka, Evan Mickas, Andrew DeShong, and Nate Welcomer. Levich, one of the founding members of Generations in Jazz, has played a major role in the promotion of the outstanding music programs that we all enjoy throughout the Lafayette community. Generations in Jazz, a community music foundation, was formed by a coalition of music educators, musicians and businessmen in Lafayette to better fund, administer, and expand several existing community music programs. Its mission is to support community activities through the language of jazz. Board member Tina Tankka advised Holt that the LCF grant "... will go to well-needed keyboards for our Summer Music Workshop."
