The Portland Jazz Festival is in full swing!

The festival is dedicated to preserving America’s indigenous art by presenting an array of talented local and international jazz musicians – and it’s a great way to celebrate Black History Month.

Along with its swinging beats, the Jazz Festival also provides education and outreach programs for Portland’s schools and neighborhoods. 

PDX Jazz, a local non-profit cultural arts organization, partners with Travel Portland each year to produce the festival. The Regional Arts & Culture Council is also proud to provide funding for the event.   

2015’s festival runs through March 1.  Check out the Portland Jazz Festival’s website for a schedule and locations.
