DONATE NOW

Donating to the Niagara Jazz Festival is a meaningful way to support the arts and help sustain a vibrant cultural tradition in the Niagara region. The festival showcases a diverse lineup of talented local, national, and international jazz artists, enriching the community through live performances, educational programs, and outreach initiatives. Your contribution directly supports musicians, educators, and event organizers, allowing the festival to continue offering high-quality programming that inspires audiences of all ages and backgrounds. In a time when arts funding is often limited, private donations are critical to keeping this genre alive and accessible.

At the heart of the Niagara Jazz Festival are its passionate co-creators, Juliet Dunn and Peter Shea — two accomplished musicians who have dedicated their lives to jazz and community-building through music. Their vision and tireless efforts have transformed the festival from a grassroots initiative into an award-winning cultural event that draws audiences from near and far. Juliet and Peter’s commitment to excellence, education, and inclusivity shines through in every aspect of the festival, from artist selection to youth mentorship programs. By donating, you’re not just supporting a festival — you’re backing a deeply personal mission led by two individuals who believe in the transformative power of music and its ability to bring people together.

Festival Creators:  Juliet Dunn & Peter Shea (1972-2022)
