Like all non-profits, the Jazz Bakery has a mission… to bring on a new generation of jazz fans who will appreciate, preserve and cultivate a unique American legacy.This gift to the world is an art form that simultaneously conveys at its heart the freedom, struggle and innovation inherent to jazz! Meeting the mission of the Jazz Bakery takes the dedication and good efforts of a lot people behind the scenes. We couldn't do it without our great core of volunteers, who cover the box office, usher shows, and provide transportation and assistance to our visiting artists. And of course, as a non-profit, it is vital to have our devoted Board of Directors who are responsible for the strategic growth of our organization, insuring the fulfillment of our mission.
