MISSION STATEMENT
Presenting, Preserving and Advancing
The Culture of Jazz
JAZZ HAVEN uses jazz as a community-building vehicle to preserve, present and advance the culture of jazz, and to nurture interest and participation in the art form of jazz music in the greater New Haven Area.
JAZZ HAVEN, as a presenter and facilitator,
welcomes collaboration with other non-profit groups, civic organizations
and businesses in the community, thus maximizing the potential and public
awareness of this truly American art form.
JAZZ HAVEN is committed to the creation
of a year-round jazz "scene" anchored in New Haven, through encouragement
and support of jazz musicians and audiences at all levels of experience,
recognition and exposure.
