Our Mission
Jazz, Education, Community
Healdsburg Jazz stimulates interest in and promotes awareness and appreciation of jazz by facilitating cross-cultural interaction, providing performance opportunities, and educating young people and adults about the important role of jazz as an indigenous American art form. We strive to:
- Preserve, curate, present, and educate audiences about jazz music, one of America’s truly original art forms.
- Build a strong community where people come together to share their love of music.
- Expand our cultural offerings through the intersection of music, poetry, dance, theater, film, visual arts, and other art forms.
- Integrate artistic programming with student education.
