JazzYYC is looking for community support for our award winning jazz education program which includes the JazzYYC Youth Lab Band. Established in 2014, many graduates of the Lab Band have gone on to professional careers as jazz musicians, composers and educators.
Our goal is to expand this program into under-served communities and to foster a program that promotes inclusion, diversity, equity and access. Donations and sponsorship will help us to expand the program across Calgary and to cover the tuition costs of deserving students.
Program sponsorship/major donations: Increments of $5,000 up to a total of $25,000 per year will sponsor the senior Lab Band (high school and college/university students) or a junior ensemble (junior high school level).
Individual donations of $500 will cover the tuition and program costs for a single student for 1 year.
