National Jazz Museum in Harlem

The National Jazz Museum in Harlem will diversify and attract new audiences through an online video series highlighting jazz as a uniquely American art form by examining jazz in relationship to place, society, and history. Jazz musicians, educators, and historians will present each topic and provide historic context. Museum staff will collaborate with a video production consultant to develop the video series and a user experience consultant to create the platform and interactive elements. The video series will help visitors gain a deeper understanding of the musical and cultural impact of jazz and its musicians with a focus on the lives of the jazz greats who called and continue to call Harlem their home.
