The FJC serves to advance public awareness of jazz music, its history, pioneers, styles and techniques, and its influence on modern culture and artistic expression. The FJC supports a revival of live music, and in particular jazz music, in Fredericksburg and its surrounding areas, for the benefit of our community’s cultural health. The FJC will serve its membership by providing and promoting a range of resources for networking among jazz musicians, patrons and aficionados, and venues at which jazz may be heard.
