While you’re digging the jazz cats on the stage, help us spring a dog from his cage.

The kind folks of Louisa Humane Society, our festival’s special nonprofit partner, will bring several adoptable dogs to meet prospective partners throughout the weekend. You can expect to see each of the adoptable dogs brought to the stage area to be introduced to the audience between musical acts. 

We encourage you to fill out an online adoption application at the link below, so you’ll be approved before you get to the festival and find yourself falling for a four-legged fido.

In appreciation…

Jeannie Kenny
(1951-2024)

Jeannie Kenny, a member of the Lake Anna Jazz family, was a founding member and President of the Louisa Humane Society. She was instrumental in converting the Louisa Animal Shelter into a “No Kill” facility and placing hundreds of homeless dogs into their forever homes.

In appreciation of her great love and efforts on behalf of music and mutts, we honor Jeannie’s memory at Lake Anna Jazz Fest 2024.
