$4,000 Goal

Let’s Get Our Jazz Ensembles Gig Ready for Give to the Max!

For this year’s GTMD project we’re raising funds for our Youth and Adult Jazz Ensembles. We'll need to update and add to some of the instruments and equipment they use when traveling to performances all over the region. Our Youth and Adult ensembles have opened for international musicians at the Twin Cities Jazz Fest, graced the stage of the Selby Avenue Jazz Fest, performed at the Landmark Center and recently they opened for Wynton Marsalis at Orchestra Hall. ⁣

We want the ensembles looking, feeling, and playing their best when they represent Walker|West. The goal is $4,000 for instruments & equipment. ⁣

Let’s get our Jazz Ensembles gig ready together. Help us reach this goal by making your annual or monthly gift, the giving period is open now through November 17.⁣
