Claude "Fiddler" Williams smiles and waves as he stands between the stair cases outside of the Topeka Performing Arts Center, 214 SE 8th Avenue, Topeka, Kansas. The marquis reads, "PRESENTS TOPEKA JAZZ FESTIVAL MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND." Three sets of art deco entrance doors are at the top of the stairs. The date, "5 28 '00," is imprinted by the camera on the bottom right-hand corner of the photograph.
