January/February 2018 25 EVENT RECAP: A Jazzy Wonderland – The DIVA Zone’s Holiday Affair by Najiyyah Brooks On December 9, 2017 at The Woodland in Maplewood, NJ, Brooks Media Group hosted an elegant re-launch holiday affair for The DIVA Zone Magazine. Themed to perfection, A Jazzy Wonderland was indeed a perfect evening. The room was filled with amazing people, sponsors, writers, supporters, family and friends. The food was delicious and plentiful; the champagne toasts were filled with holiday cheer and the ambiance was topped off with phenomenal live jazz! The New Jersey based Bradford Hayes Quartet opened the evening impeccably leading into a soul stirring solo set with powerhouse international saxophonist; the stellar, Lord Yancyy who traveled all the way from Detroit to celebrate the evening. Yancyy also graced the beautiful cover of our holiday re-launch issue; definitely one for your collection as the print version of The DIVA Zone Magazine is here to stay! We are sharing a few photos from the evening. We do hope that you are able to join us for our big, well planned and classy annual events in 2018. There is room at the table for YOU!
