About Us & Our Other Events
In addition to our annual Jazz Summit, the Prescott Jazz Summit presents concerts all year long, including our very successful monthly series at the Elks Performing Arts Center, in the Crystal Ballroom. It is entitled “A Jazz Journey at the Elks Performing Arts Center,” and each concert has a different theme.
We continue to bring musicians to our area to perform for our jazz fans, as well as striving to educate our young people about “America’s True Art Form,” JAZZ MUSIC

Our Dedication to Music Education
In keeping with our dedication to music education, we have had musical groups make assembly presentations in Prescott schools, as well as schools all over northern Arizona, at no charge to the schools. These mini-concerts have been very well received by the students, parents and faculty at every school. We have performed jazz workshops that have been attended by high school jazz bands from all over our state. We have also donated funds to local high school music programs.
