From our beginnings in 1980, the purpose of AFCDJS has been the promotion & education of traditional jazz. While this has produced amazing festivals & concerts, our events have seen a decline in attendance over the past 10 years. We have explored many options to improve attendance and reduce the costs of live events, but despite our best efforts, we find that we must reduce our scope in order to focus on what is accomplishable within our current budget.
What this means is that at this time we are unable to continue producing the annual SD Jazz Fest & our monthly concert series. Though we cannot say what the future holds, our purpose remains the same: keeping the music alive. We appreciate your patience as we work through this and promise to inform you once our path forward becomes clearer. We assure you this is not goodbye but do want to thank you for your support over the years. We could not have reached the great heights of the past 43 years without your love, support and dedication to traditional jazz.
