Dear Friends:
Here at the Jazz Heritage Center, we are busy building out 2012 programming for you, and we ask you to support us with a
year-end gift to help make 2012 a spectacular year.
Please consider a
gift to support our programming and to build on what we started in 2011:
We launched a Best of Bop City series in partnership with KCSM 91.1 Jazz, hosted by Sonny Buxton. If you were in one of the sold out evenings celebrating Dexter Gordon and then the
50th Anniversary of Impulse! Records,
you will know how wonderful it was to hear some local history told by
Sonny and performed by the likes of some of our own greats including
Jamie Davis, Larry Vuckovich, Jeff Chambers, Noel Jewkes, Lorca Hart,
Rob Roth and Chuck McPherson.

We launched our
After Glow performances to close out the two days of the Fillmore Street Jazz Festival
in July. Once again, there were performances to packed houses for
stellar performances by Roger Glenn, Bill Bell, David Daniel, Leon
Joyce, David Hardiman, Mechelle LaChaux, Branice McKenzie, Rousell
White, Lady Mem'fis, Charles Unger, Carl Lockett and Big Bones. We
heard people in our audience saying that their experience with us was
the best of the Jazz Festival for them. What an honor!

We partnered with the Bill Graham Memorial Foundation to bring you the first ever
exhibit tribute
to the legendary promoter Bill Graham, who shaped so much of what
the contemporary concert experience is today and whose famed concerts
drew hundreds of thousands to this Fillmore Music District.
Again, we experienced a sold out audience as fans flocked to the
Jazz Heritage Center to hear remembrances and great storytelling by
the likes of Mickey Hart from the Grateful Dead.
There is so much more we can tell you about 2011, with even more to come in 2012 including programming from a new
partnership with SFJazz.
