Jazz House Kids helps students gain an "artistic edge" through music, mentoring, education and apprenticeship. By offering pre-professional, year-round musical training along with community engagement and education programs for young people from all backgrounds, we use jazz as an effective teaching tool to enhance academic achievement, dedication and teamwork, and cultivate tomorrow's global citizens. JazzTimes calls Jazz House Kids, "one of the most successful and respected jazz education programs in the country." Since 2002, more than 45,000 students have participated in Jazz House Kids' music education programs in the schools and at the Jazz House, and have performed for more than half a million people in the community. Through the Jazz House Kids Music + Education Fund, the organization seeks to raise vital funds needed to ensure access to world-class education and community programming.
Each year, Jazz House Kids students perform before 20,000 people, many of whom attend the organization's signature event, its "no tickets required"
Montclair Jazz Festival
. Held each August, the festival attracts 8,000 music fans from the East Coast and beyond.
