BECOME A SVJS SPONSOR or PATRON!
Did you know that the Sonoma Valley Jazz Society has been providing great jazz concerts for Sonoma Valley residents for over 20 years? And it just keeps getting better.
We do it all with dedicated volunteers, enthusiastic dues-paying members, and loyal Sonoma Valley businesses and individuals like you. We’d like to ask you to help sponsor this truly unique Sonoma Valley organization, especially this year. You’ll be joining a great group of Valley folks, and doing a service to the entire community.
Here’s what local support did for jazz in Sonoma Valley in 2010:
- 4 free Farmers Market Concerts during the summer at the Plaza's Grinstead Amphitheatre, with average attendance of 400
- 52 Friday night live jazz concerts at the Plaza Bistro, with a great group of jazz aficionados and newcomers, where everyone will soon know your name
- A special, modestly-priced concert celebrating the Wild Women of Song
- 3 Sunday Salons of Meet the Musicians at the Community Center
- The blowout annual Members and Sponsors Party
- Financial support and scholarships for jazz education for youth
- No-charge musician referrals to the various public and private events.
The SVJS is a small nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization, and our funding comes almost entirely from donations from Sonoma Valley residents and businesses like you. On behalf of Sonoma’s jazz lovers, I’d like to invite you to join us in our wonderful local support of all that is jazz – the premier indigenous American music form.
Thanks for helping jazz thrive in Sonoma!
