Programs

• In Schools and Community Centers

  Louisville Jazz Initiative partners with schools to connect Louisville's top jazz professionals to students and immerse them in jazz music, culture, and history. Our original curriculum preserves the tradition of Black American music as a vehicle for discovery and expression, within oneself as well as one's community.

• Jazz Jams

  The Jam Session has always been an integral part of a jazz musician's life. Young or old, amateur or professional, everyone is welcome to play. By encouraging each other to take risks, supporting each individual's growth, and celebrating the inherent value of every players contribution, we learn together how to be compassionate members of our community.

We know quality is what really matters in community engagement. But here are the numbers anyway!
