SFJAZZ explores the full spectrum of jazz—from its origins in the African American and Afro Caribbean communities, to its diverse and evolving expressions around the world today. We honor the artists and the music that have influenced or been influenced by jazz, and through creation, presentation and education, we inspire and build a community in the Bay Area and beyond.
