24 Annual Englewood Jazz festival

This year the 3-day festival illuminates emerging and established homegrown artists that demonstrate Live the Spirit Residency's deep commitment to educating and mentoring the next generation of jazz.

The Englewood Jazz Festival has been hailed by critics as "The most provocative jazz performance of the year" and certainly one of the best free festivals in the City of Chicago. The Festival is our keynote event and offers Englewood and Chicago area residents a free day of music that provides an opportunity to introduce jazz lovers to local and national artists who write and perform their own music.

Over the past fourteen years, these artists, and many others, have graced the Festival stage: Oliver Lake, Roscoe Mitchell, Jimmy Ellis, Houston Person, Von Freeman, George Freeman, Ari Brown, Tatsu Aioki, Willie Pickens, Delfeayo Marsalis, Dee Alexander, Muntu Dance Theater, Zim Ngqawana, and Maggie Brown.
