KC Jazz ALIVE
Kansas City Jazz ALIVE is a 501(c)3 catalyst group organized in 2013 to implement opportunities for the Greater Kansas City jazz community.
The mission of Kansas City Jazz ALIVE is to:
Build AWARENESS, serve as a LISTENING body, provide a platform for integrating IDEAS, function as a VOICE, provide EXPOSURE to resources, and unite the Kansas City jazz community. As a catalyst organization – supporting artists, enthusiasts and venue owners, we strive to raise the tide that lifts all jazz boats.
As part of this mission, KC Jazz ALIVE hosts the annual Charlie Parker Celebration. This 10-day celebration is jam-packed with education sessions, public programs, and music at the greatest jazz venues in Kansas City. The Charlie Parker Celebration features talented jazz musicians, educators and scholars, alongside Artists in Residence.
