The fifth annual Jamming for Jackets will take place tomorrow.

 

The event will be live at the Juniper Centre from 6 to 9 PM.

 

The initiative is a way to address the issues of homelessness, addiction, and poverty in the north.

 

Jesse McKay, one of the organizers for the event, explains how he and his fellow organizers came up with the idea for Jamming for Jackets.

 

"As musicians... we were doing a lot of events, just thorwing shows and conerts in town.We wanted to grow from that,as well as wanting to do something for the community, just to birng everyone together in a sense."

 

While Jamming for Jackets is free to attend, they will be accepting winter clothing and non-perishable food items for donations.

 

The line-up can be found on our Event Calender, or on the Jamming for Jackets Facebook event page.
