WHO WE ARE

Jazz Matters Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to recognizing the cultural and artistic significance of jazz music. Jazz, which is widely regarded as the only truly original American art form, was pioneered by African Americans and has become a national treasure. At Jazz Matters, we firmly believe in the importance of jazz music and our goal is to celebrate and promote it through our work. As a 501(c)(3) organization, we aim to support the continued growth and preservation of this invaluable art form.
