Mission
The Tucson Jazz Music Foundation is dedicated to making jazz music education accessible for Arizona's youth and the community. We provide tuition and travel scholarships to middle and high school age students (financial needs based), sponsor guest artists for workshops, performances, and residencies and recordings; sponsor participation fees and group travel expenses to adjudicated competitions and jazz festivals, provide mentors and private lessons to scholarship students, and organize and sponsor educational jazz music school shows and annual jazz celebrations.
