The Shops at Wisconsin Place recently added summer jazz concerts to a plaza already filled with art, a fountain and great restaurants and boutiques. Some of my favorite shops are there and I love the new Tasting Room. The free concert series will take place on Saturdays from 4-6 pm, featuring world-class musicians starting June 12. Here's the lineup:
