The Jazz Gallery, an “international cultural center” that produces close to 150 performances a year, is working on a Kickstarter campaign to offer free rehearsal space for jazz musicians. The Jazz Gallery is one of the most innovative and fresh performance spaces for up-and-coming artists. For audiences, a donation of $75 a person ($50 per student) gets you significantly discounted ticket prices to see artists like Gretchen Parlato, Ben Williams, Gerald Clayton and many more. Help Jazz Gallery reach their goal to give hard working New York musicians access to free practice space by clicking here.
