GUYANA Georgetown Jazz Club Address: Lot 3 Norton Street
Werk-en-Rust Georgetown, Guyana E-Mail: [email protected]
Contact Name: Eugene Noel Title: Secretary Year Established: 2007
Purpose: Our aim is to enrich the public’s understanding of what is
jazz and create broader awareness of the lives and works of all
local artistes, particularly those who embraced the genre. Our
first task is to stimulate interest in jazz, educate the population
and make jazz popular. We want to promote jazz and advance music
education by hosting concerts and other cultural promotions aimed
at resuscitating jazz in Guyana. Our second major task is to create
a lasting place for jazz on the national tourism calendar by
hosting –perhaps in collaboration with other likeminded individuals
and units- countrywide jazz and other musical events until we are
able to host with confidence an annual jazz festival in Guyana.
