Annual Fundraiser

Giant Steps for Jazz

Nearly $110,000 raised for Kuumbwa Jazz’s music education initiatives and year-round concert programming.

 
Each year we look forward to our annual fundraiser and this year’s benefit, Giant Steps For Jazz, was truly one to remember, and our highest-grossing fundraiser to-date. Thank you to all who joined us  – together we raised nearly $110,000, which will help us continue to bring incredible concerts to our community, as well as provide another vibrant year of our music education programs.

Our deepest thanks to Miner Family Winery for sponsoring and providing top-shelf vintages, as well as to Chef Brad Briske, of Soquel’s Home restaurant, for the delicious four-course dinner. The additional wine selections from the private cellar or Erik & Judy Johnson made this event, taking symbolic steps for jazz, one to remember. Thank you!
