The mission

Jazz@Wesley's mission is threefold: to support the DC jazz community, to make jazz accessible through low ticket prices, and to create a sense of community. Most of the funds raised through ticket sales go to the artists and sound engineers.

The vision

The congregation at Wesley wanted to share their rich musical traditions and beautiful fellowship hall with the neighborhood. They envisioned an evening filled with joy, music, food, and fellowship.
