Volunteer

Volunteer Applications are currently OPEN for the 2022 Conference.

As an organization, we operate with only one full-time staff and a small number of part-time staff–most of our annual and conference activities are handled by our dedicated volunteers. We’re looking for dedicated members of the jazz community with a variety of skill sets to dedicate their time at the annual conference.

Thank you to everyone who volunteers to help make this the best conference yet!

Volunteer

Jazz is open-ended music designed for open minds. It is enlightenment and understanding between differently-minded people.

Our volunteer opportunities offer a spirit of collaboration to a new generation of open minds.

Jazz is Life

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed it's the only thing that ever has."

—Margaret Mead (American cultural anthropologist)
