HJF in the Community

One of the most distinguishing features of the Healdsburg Jazz Festival is its strong connection with and support from the community. We are fortunate that most of our financial contributions are generated locally. Residents with private guest homes host many musicians, area restaurants and caterers donate food and drink, and businesses in town decorate their store windows with musical themes. All of the spirit and energy of this yearlong effort takes place during the beginning of June, transforming our small town into a mecca for world-class performers.

With appreciation and heartfelt thanks, we acknowledge the following individuals, organizations, and businesses that contributed to making the 2011 Healdsburg Jazz Festival a tremendous success.
