2011 Youth Summit

The 2011 Youth Summit, December 3, 2011 at the Carver Museum, is a community event targeted at teen to promote artistic creativity.  FREE Workshops offered at the Youth Summit include:

  • Disc Drives & Digital Lives:  Making a Life and Career in the Creative & Online Industries

  • Totally Cool/Totally Art Teen Art Workshop

  • Women in Jazz Singers' Performance Workshop

  • The Right Shot, Every Time:  Videos That Capture the Moment

  • The Art of Glass Blowing

The purpose of Women in Jazz Association is to perpetuate the appreciation and performance of traditional jazz vocal and instrumental music. As vocal jazz is a declining art form, this purpose is charitable -- the protection and preservation of a valuable art form called jazz; that is, vocal jazz. It is through concerts, educational workshops, and performance opportunities of singers that provide the means to the end -- perpetuate vocal jazz music. The Association also understands the importance of investing in our future through Cultural and Performing Arts, as well as, digital media. The Women in Jazz Association, Inc. has solicited the support of the City of Austin, the National Forum for Black Public Administrators, and other community organizations to help them make a difference with our youth at the Summit.
