The Jazz Centre UK announces the launch of its first major exhibition ‘Jazz Now’: Jazz in all its forms that you can listen to NOW!’
The Jazz Centre UK is delighted to announce that from Friday, April 6th to Saturday 12th May 2018 it will be presenting its first major exhibition ‘Jazz Now’.
This exciting project, supported by Heritage Lottery Fund and Southend Borough Council, will celebrate the continuing vitality of the jazz culture in Britain and beyond via exhibitions, live presentations, film and five live music events. Its aim is to encourage and inspire its visitors to re-explore all the genres of jazz which are available to the public in 2018. Our exhibition will provide direct routes to the personal enjoyment of jazz music which lie both within – and beyond – standard media outlets (including publications, radio, recordings and live venues). And within our Centre (situated at the Beecroft Art Gallery, Victoria Avenue, Southend-on-Sea, Essex SS2 6EX) we will also be celebrating jazz music with an internationally-based series of presentations covering the entire inter-generational span of jazz activity.
These will include, as the exhibition progresses:
