    About Us

    What is a Jazz House? Quite simply, a Jazz House is the creative space where we come together with young people, their families and teachers to share, appreciate and learn about the jazz experience.

    It is a mobile house, constantly in play, with wheels that turn on improvisation as it negotiates its way toward that incandescent goal: the celebration of jazz. It is a house whose foundation is built on:

    • Respect for creativity
    • Tolerance for diversity
    • Harmony in teamwork
    • Love for self and others
    • An abiding passion to preserve the legacy, and ensure the future, of jazz.

    It is where we live
