he Birmingham Bar Foundation hosted one of its signature events, the 2012 Jazz Fest, May 12. New Orleans flair, food and jazz set the tone for the festivities. Members of Birmingham’s legal community and other guests attended the event at Veranda on Highland. Proceeds will go to the foundation’s charitable endeavors, including grants to nonprofit organizations. The menu featured traditional New Orleans cuisine prepared by executive chef Jeffery Hansell, a Gulf Coast native. Dishes included jambalaya, shrimp etouffee, oysters and desserts. Two jazz bands, caricature artists and a silent auction provided the evening’s entertainment. Established in 1994, the Birmingham Bar Foundation is the charitable arm of the Birmingham Bar Association. ❖
