We hope your month has been filled with jazz appreciation so far! We’ll be sharing about some incredible women in jazz 🌟

We would love to see the day when the contributions of women in jazz are just naturally included. We also want to see the day when women are well represented in jazz — as students, as academics, as composers of the music and repertoire being taught, as performers on stages, and behind the scenes, too. That said, our mission is to create greater inclusivity and community. We want to raise the voices of girls and nonbinary students in jazz and showcase women in jazz past and present to educate and inspire people. ❤️🖤🤍
