Our Sponsors, Supporters, Friends!

The Mo Jazz Music Festival is a FREE event created by Jazz Forward Initiative, Incorporated, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization.  Our second round of Jazz Festival was better than our first, with great weather and more attendees!  We hope the 2020 Mo Jazz Music Festival surpasses its predecessors!
