Boxley Music Fund

That's our first name. We began as the Boxley Music Fund in 2010, supporting one venue in North Bend, Washington. In that time, we have experienced success in many ways beyond the scope of our original mission. The support of live jazz performance and education has helped lead a revitalization in Old Town North Bend. Our Jazz Walk & Blues Walk have had a dramatic impact on the North Bend community and business district, as it both promoted Jazz as a modern art form and also brought in a significant surge to local small businesses during the events. In addition, Boxley’s has received recognition worldwide in Downbeat magazine as one of the best Jazz venues in the world.

In 2014, we were asked to support other communities in starting non-profit organizations to support Jazz performance and education. We began by supporting the launch of Bellingham's club, WJMAC - the Whatcom County Jazz Music Arts Center. This club provides Jazz performance and student workshops and mentorship opportunities every week in Bellingham. In 2015, we began launching additional venues across the Pacific NW under the partnership of JazzClubsNW.

Great Musicians Supporting JazzClubsNW

At JazzClubsNW we are honored to have a great team of Jazz musicians working with our student groups. These mentors work with student groups on a weekly basis helping them learn about Jazz and performing with them. Musicians are added often as new student groups form, and they also rotate from group to group offering a chance more students to work with and perform with each professional. This list changes often based upon the availability of these professionals and their busy schedules.
