The Jazz Gallery
The Jazz Gallery serves as an international cultural center where the youngest generation of emerging professional jazz musicians are nurtured with opportunities to collaborate with their peers, discover and refine their creativity, and perform in front of eager audiences.
Taking pride in its world-renowned reputation as a key player in the NYC jazz community, The Jazz Gallery sustains a tradition of artistic excellence in jazz and fosters artistic growth by presenting both major and established figures in jazz alongside a younger generation of artists.
Winner of the 2016, 2014 and 2010 CMA/ASCAP Awards for Adventurous Programming, The Jazz Gallery has garnered a reputation as “the most imaginatively booked jazz club in New York” (New York Times). Current offerings are divided into 4 primary programs: 1) 21st Century Jazz, which showcases both emerging and established artists; 2) Residency Commissions, which support the creation of new works by exciting young composers; 3) the new Mentoring Program, which pairs young musicians with seasoned veterans to gain valuable creative and professional experience; and 4) The Woodshed, which provides free rehearsal space to the city’s jazz artists.
The Jazz Gallery is open three nights per week, 50 weeks per year, presenting more than 300 events to an annual audience of 15,000 and plans to expand its activities further.
