FAIRFAX, Va., Oct. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The Fairfax Law Foundation and George Mason University Jazz Ensemble present the Tenth Annual Jazz 4 Justice Concert on Friday, November 11, 2011 at 8:00 PM in the George Mason University Center for the Arts Concert Hall. This concert benefits the charitable endeavors of the Fairfax Law Foundation and the Music Scholarship Fund at GMU.

This year's concert will be a celebration of the big band jazz music of World War II and will be admitting Veterans free of charge as distinguished guests.

Immediately following the concert, all audience members are invited and encouraged to join in the music making by attending a post-concert jam session. Musicians of all levels are invited to play.
