Last year’s Juneau Jazz Fest lit up our community with concerts, coaching, and dancing! Jazz Fest 2025 will cost $17 per student per day, and that’s all it takes to send a student for a day of inspiration, learning, and music.

Will you help? Donate today to join in the effort to send more students to Jazz Fest!
