            Dear Fans, Members & Volunteers,

            For 44 years, Memorial Day weekend has meant music, fun, and good times with family and friends in Old Sacramento.  The Sacramento Music Festival has brought the community together to enjoy great live music, and in the beginning, and throughout those 44 years, assisted in the development of Old Sacramento from a less desirable neighborhood to the revitalized riverfront attraction it is today. 

            For most of our 44 years, the festival has been self-supporting.  Unfortunately, for the last couple of years the changing demographics and abundance of other activities taking place on Memorial Day weekend have threatened the survival of the festival.  

            The Music Festival and the Sacramento Traditional Jazz Society (STJS) has been a direct influence in the education and development of many successful young musicians and has been an event where many veteran musicians and rising stars have come together, the young and old, to share individual talents and catch up with friends, and we as fans are able to enjoy the fun and the power behind it.

            The performing arts is a critical piece to our overall development and STJS has brought the Music Festival and many other live events to our members and fans in the Sacramento community keeping the art of Traditional Jazz alive, music originally performed by legendary greats like Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, and Turk Murphy.  STJS is a non-profit organization and as a non-profit organization, we exist because of your donations and fundraisers like the Sacramento Music Festival. 

            So please donate, and feel free to include with your donation your insight on how we can better meet your expectations.  Help us to keep Jazz and the Sacramento Music Festival going for another year.

            Sincerely,

            Dennis Speciale

            ​ We are in our final weeks of the 2017 Fundraising Drive
            $25 Can Go A Long Way.

             
            We are in the final weeks of our 2017 fundraising drive. Raising funds to continue our mission, and bring you the 2018 Sacramento Music Festival has never been so critical.  With your support of $10 - $25, you can help us to continue.   

            $25 per person can go a long way and can give us the money needed to continue to bring the Sacramento Community great Jazz programming like the Second Sunday Jazz concerts held each month, Jazz Movie events like the King of Jazz, the Concerts in the park series and of course, continue with the Sacramento Music Festival and our Jazz education programs. 
           ​ 
            Donate $25 or More and You'll Be
            Entered To Win!
           
              For all who donate $25 or more, we will give you an admission pass to each of 2 special Jazz Sunday concert events and put your name in to a special drawing to win an admission value package to our 2018 festival. However, that may be dependent on meeting our campaign goal of $80,000.  $10 - $25 per person is all that is needed to reach our goal.

            Donate Here!
              

              
             
            Thank you for your continued support of the Sacramento Music Festival and Sacramento Traditional Jazz Society. We appreciate you.
