Ron McMunn started the “Heart Jam” over 25 years ago to raise funds for the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. The jam has always been held each year on the first Sunday in February during “Heart Month”. It was with great sadness that Ron’s son, Jeff, died from a heart condition in late 2016. As such, the event is now being referred to as the “Ron & Jeff McMunn Heart Jam”.
Again this year, the event is being promoted as an audience participation event, not a concert. People are encouraged to get up and dance throughout the day. Tickets for this year’s Ron & Jeff McMunn Heart Jam are available at the locations listed on the poster. Get yours early as this event always sells out. All proceeds go towards the University of Ottawa Heart Institute.
