The Boston Jazz Foundation's (BJF) mission is to create opportunities for marginalized artists to thrive -- not only through meaningful performance opportunities, but by providing professional development, career / financial mentoring, and educational resources. BJF is dedicated to enhancing and promoting jazz within the greater Boston community, by producing concerts, partnering with local schools, and mentoring of underserved youth.

Thanks for signing up!

The Boston area jazz scene is growing, and we are grateful to all the members of our community for working together to continue to celebrate this important music!  In particular, we are pleased that Boston Jazz FoundationJazzBoston, and the Cambridge Jazz Foundation have agreed to collaborate on a number of projects.  Please note that these three non-profit organizations are independent, with differing areas of focus, but all are working towards the mutual goal of support & advocacy of improvisational jazz, a music that originated in the African American community.  You can help by donating to them individually at their respective websites.  Thank you!
