A night of music, food and friends was the goal for the Sarasota Compeer Jam Thursday night at Sarasota Architectural Salvage. 

That goal was met with tasty foods from local restaurants for guests to savor and plenty of old friends to share stories. Music was provided by local artists for the evening. 

Sarasota Compeer is based on a global program that provides support through friendship and mentoring relationships to adults with mental illness. Compeer operates locally out of Coastal Behavioral Healthcare.
