About half-way between NYC and Philly (about an hour outside of each) is a town called New Hope, PA. There is a somewhat large artistic community there and it is also a popular getaway for trendy NYC and Philly city dwellers. (In other words, it *should* be a great climate for Jazz.) Listed below are a few venues currenting featuring Jazz, but there are probably many more prospectives in the way of B&B's, Inns, museums, art galleries, etc.
