April Events 2026

Celebrating National Jazz Appreciation Month

and International Jazz Day

April is National Jazz Appreciation Month. Yeah, that's a thing.

And, each April 30th is International Jazz Day! Yeah, that's a thing, too.

Here at Jazz Arts Project, we celebrate jazz year-round with world-class performances and transformative music education programs for area youth. And each April we try to do some special events. This year we present three of our ever-popular jazz café nights on succeeding Wednesdays, and then our annual gala performance and fundraiser on April 29th.

Join us to celebrate our 20th anniversary. A fun evening combining the culture and panache of Havana in its heyday, with the rhythms of the Afro-Cuban Latin diaspora. A fundraiser and fitting tribute as part of UNESCO's International Jazz Day. Performances to include: Arturo O'Farrill Afro-Cuban ensemble, La Manga (an all female Latin Percussion Ensemble), and our own Jazz Arts Academy Allstars. Classic Cars, Cuban flair, cuisine, and more surprises!
