The Salem Jazz and Soul Festival is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization
that produces free concerts for the public and raises money to support music
education programs. We are an all volunteer run organization.
Since we started the festival in 2007, we've produced over 40 free concerts for the
public, highlighting both local music talent and national acts. In addition to
allowing us to produce free music events for the public, proceeds from the festival
benefit music education programs on the North Shore of Massachusetts.
To date, we've raised almost $25,000 for music education programs in schools
and youth programs. Learn more about our music education programs.
