Jazz & Joe is a success!
We are now appearing at many houses of worship on a regular basis as well as helping charitable organizations in their fund raising efforts. We reaching approximately 1,800 people with our monthly email with our message of jazz for the community.
At each event between 40 and 150 people are in attendance. Not only do the Parishioners attend but the event draws community members too.
The result of the relationship has been that the houses of worship and the surrounding community, the musicians and the sponsors, have all benefited from the evenings of jazz. The house of worship benefits through providing an invaluable experience for members of the church as well as the surrounding community and through donations made to help vitalize their music programs.
It’s time to move forward and move the connection between jazz and the community to the next level.
Will you become a sponsor? Will you help?
