Our Commitments
Montavilla Jazz is committed to growing our organization in a way that brings more voices to the table. We have set our intention to make the following commitments an indelible part of Montavilla Jazz systems, practices and policies as we grow and develop as an organization.
IN ALL AREAS OF OUR WORK MONTAVILLA JAZZ:
- Seeks to include the people who reflect the community we serve.
- Highlights members of our artist community who are less visible because of their race, gender, or other factors.
- Provides opportunities for underserved members of our community to participate in the planning and operations of events.
- Recruits and hires individuals who come from groups who have been historically marginalized.
