Name: 40th Annual Jazz Service
Start: 2024-06-30T23:00:00-04:00
Location: First Unitarian Church In New Bedford

Save the date! Celebrate 40 years of Jazz at the First Unitarian Church in New Bedford.
Our jazz service recognizes both the roots of jazz in American slavery and the deeply established existence of white supremacy throughout our nation today. To this end, our church supports the yearly assembling of an ensemble of excellent racially diverse musicians who come primarily from our city of New Bedford and its surrounding towns.
Our goal is to reflect on the racial realities of our country. We hope all who are present leave with a renewed commitment to work towards a more equal and just America.
The jazz service is a highlight in our year and helps us raise vital funds for our church and its social justice initiatives.
This year, our event will take place on June 30, which will be bigger and better than ever. We are adding vendors, an artisan market, a raffle, and concessions to the church lawn.
To apply to participate as a vendor, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/eYBRmKwPejaKYeFr7
