This year’s Selby JazzFest was memorable, and it wasn’t solely due to the presence of jazz legend Najee.

During this year’s event, festival organizers and Golden Thyme Coffee and Café owners, Mychael and Stephanie Wright announced that they had sold the beloved community establishment to Rondo Community Land Trust. The couple has owned the café for over 24 years and were planning on retiring when approached to sell the place. “I didn’t believe we’d get that kind of offer,” Mychael said in a statement. “I said, ‘That’s one of the best things I’ve ever heard!’”
