The Arkansas Jazz Educators invite you to join in the growth of jazz in Arkansas (PDF and Word applications available here). Now all of the money raised by the group will stay in Arkansas and contribute to the growth of musicianship and education in our state. Dues have also been reduced for both individuals and associate members. We will still be sponsoring events, programs and works such as the All State Jazz etudes, jazz presentations at ABA, and All State jazz clinicians.
