The evening’s spotlight performance features world-renowned, two-time GRAMMY® Award–winning jazz drummer Quentin E. Baxter and Friends, whose electrifying artistry will ignite the room. You’ll also be moved by the extraordinary young musicians of the Charleston Jazz Academy, sharing their passion and talent as they perform the music of the next generation.

Guests will savor a delicious dinner, enjoy an open bar, and bid on one-of-a-kind items in our live and silent auctions. During our Fund-a-Need paddle raise, you’ll have the opportunity to directly support jazz education and performance in our community. We’ll also proudly present the Tip of the Hat Award to honor a jazz luminary making a lasting impact on the art form.

Dress to impress, bring your love of jazz, and prepare to celebrate — all in support of Charleston Jazz’s mission to inspire and grow a vibrant jazz culture through performance, education, and outreach.
