The JazzArts Academy is in full swing this Spring! We are thrilled to welcome over 50 students in our Youth Ensembles + Workshops program and over 20 students in our Nuestro Tiempo Latin Jazz Youth Ensemble this session!

JazzArts Charlotte is announcing the departure of Artistic Director Ocie Davis, who will leave the organization as full-time Artistic Director at the end of August 2022.

Beginning July 1, Lonnie Davis takes on a new role as President of the Board of Directors for the leading jazz organization in the world, the Jazz Education Network.

“If you can play jazz you can really play anything.” The entertaining and informative Francene Marie Show sat down with Lonnie Davis to talk about the importance of jazz, education, and the upcoming JazzArts Music Camp.

“Preserving Latin Jazz! That’s the goal of the free Latin Jazz Youth Ensemble program launched by JazzArts Charlotte this Spring”, announces John Le, covering the program in a recent article by Queen City News.
