THE SUMMER SOLSTICE JAZZ FESTIVAL IS PRESENTED BY THE CITY OF EAST LANSING AND MSU COLLEGE OF MUSIC
WELCOME
2019 brings the 23rd Summer Solstice Jazz Festival (SSJF) to
the heart of downtown East Lansing. The festival has seen many
changes over its long legacy. It started as a one-day festival in
1996. It’s moved locations three times from MSU’s campus to Ann
Street Plaza to its current location at 139 Bailey St. It has seen
countless board members and a few different coordinators, but
through it all it has maintained its integrity and original mission:
to deliver the best in what jazz has to offer locally, regionally and,
sometimes, even nationally to the community.
The ability for the SSJF to maintain its long-standing commitment
to excellence is due, in large part, to its supporters, like YOU! The
festival is fully funded by sponsorships, donations and grants.
Your donation or sponsorship allows us to advertise across the
state of Michigan in various venues, to have quality sound and
lighting, to pay two part-time staff members and perhaps, most
importantly, your donation allows us to bring in quality performers
AND pay them a fair wage.
Summer Solstice Jazz The SSJF Advisory Board would like to thank you in advance
for your generosity and support of the festival. The 2019 festival
Festival Advisory Board planning is already well underway, with a few surprises up our
sleeves. We can’t wait to share them with you!
