Jazz In Schools Programs

Bring JazzArts Charlotte to Your School

With education and outreach programs designed to engage everyone from school age children to adults, we serve as a resource for schools, young musicians and the community.

If your school would like to discuss a way we may be able to support your music program needs virtually or in person, we’d love to hear from you.

For more information or to schedule a program at your school, fill out this brief questionnaire, and our Program Coordinator will get back to you to discuss program details.
