A Performing and Presenting Arts Organization

It all started with a vision…

To create a vibrant organization that explores the entirety of jazz while preserving and promoting the music for the greater Houston community and beyond.

To regularly lead community educational opportunities for children and adults including workshops, public school programs, and educational residencies.

And to showcase the diverse musical and cultural heritage of Houston, by collaborating with artists from other genres including Gospel, Pop, Orchestral Music, and R&B. 

And it sprouted because of you!

Your support has a direct impact on ensuring that Jazz Houston can continue to achieve our mission to promotes the cultivation of jazz music globally through Performance, Education, and Community Outreach, and honors the Houstonians and Texans who have and continue to be major contributors to Jazz through the celebration of their legacies and the performance of their works.
