About Jazz Power Initiative:
Jazz Power Initiative is a community-based non-profit organization with the mission of Jazz Power Initiative (JPI) is to transform lives through jazz arts education and performance. Jazz Power serves thousands of New Yorkers and visitors annually – students, teachers, artists, seniors and general audiences, ages 8-80+, to promote youth development, and build more creative and inclusive communities through jazz music, theater and dance education and performance. One of the ways we do this is through our Intergenerational Jazz Power Jam series, of which you are part of today, presenting world-class musicians in a family-friendly setting. You are now part of this journey, and I want to thank you for being here with us.

Intergenerational Jazz Power Jam is produced by Jazz Power Initiative, a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) organization founded in 2003, is made possible in part by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council; the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature; the Howard Gilman Foundation; the Hispanic Federation; the National Jazz Museum in Harlem; Alianza Dominicana Cultural Center with Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New York and the New York City Department of Youth & Community Development; the Upper Manhattan Empowerment Zone, and our individual donors. Thank you for your support!
