After securing a full liquor license, the beautifully renovated bar at The Nash jazz club, now named JD’s at The Nash, will begin serving a full menu of cocktails, each inspired by classic flavors with a Southwest twist (submitted photo).
In late 2024, The Nash jazz club unveiled a $2.5 million renovation and celebrated its 12th anniversary with the grand re-opening of its transformed performance space, Now, thanks to a lead gift from The John Dawson Foundation, the downtown Phoenix club has officially secured a full liquor license, expanding the club experience with the launch of JD’s at The Nash, a full-service bar designed to complement its intimate, world-class jazz performances.
Named in honor of John Dawson, a passionate supporter of jazz and arts education, JD’s at The Nash recognizes Dawson’s commitment to the American art form and his interest in developing future generations of musicians.
The addition of the bar not only enhances the audience experience, but also creates an important new source of ongoing support for The Nash’s jazz education programs.
To celebrate, The Nash invited the community to help put the final creative touch on the menu through a contest to name six signature cocktails, each inspired by classic flavors with a Southwest twist.
