Join Us — Support Boston's Jazz Scene

Jump to: Membership Partners | Membership Categories | Join/Contribute

When you join or contribute to JazzBoston, you are supporting the free services this website provides to musicians and fans as well as a range of educational initiatives and special events designed to spread the word about Boston’s exciting jazz scene and keep it growing. Everything we do is part of a collective effort by and for our city’s unique jazz community. The success of that effort depends on every one of you who has ever been inspired, excited, or entertained by jazz.

New Membership Partners and member benefits are being added every month. Sign up for the JazzBoston E-Newsletter to keep posted.

Save January 31 for JazzBoston's 4th annual Members Appreciation Party and birthday bash, 6 - 8 pm at Ryles Jazz Club. (Can't believe we're almost 6 years old!) More details coming soon.

JazzBoston welcomes members of WGBH with a 20% discount on all categories of JazzBoston membership. For information on WGBH membership, go to wgbh.org/members.

Membership Partners

JazzBoston's three newest Membership Partners bring our roster of participating clubs, restaurants, and museums to thirteen. They are joined by the Arts & Business Council of Greater Boston (A&BC/Boston), the first arts service organization to offer discounts to JazzBoston members.
 
Bella Luna Restaurant & Milky Way Lounge, the renowned Jamaica Plain entertainment hotspot, is offering JazzBoston members a 10% discount on food during its Jazz Supper with Bill Banfield & Friends, 7 to 9 p.m. on the first Wednesday of every month. Bella Luna is located at The Brewery Complex, 284 Armory Street, Jamaica Plain.
 
Darryl's Corner Bar & Kitchen, which made former customers of Bob's Southern Bistro very happy when it opened in October at the same 604 Columbus Avenue location, is offering JazzBoston members a 10% discount on all meals with the purchase of an entree. Proprietor Darryl Settles has scheduled live music Tuesday through Sunday. Among the regulars performing at his new place are Gregg Luttrell, Marie Davy, Bill Banfield's Urbane Project, Pat Loomis and Friends, Eguie Castrillo and the Brown Sound Band, and Frank Wilkins.
 
World Music/CRASHarts, which has presented the finest traditional and contemporary performing arts from around the world since 1990, is offering JazzBoston members a 20% discount on tickets to performances that fit under the big umbrella of jazz. Tickets must be purchased in advance, either by phone or online, and handling fees apply. For phone purchases, call 617.876.4275 between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. If you purchase your tickets online, use the code JazzB20 when you check out. Discounts are subject to availability; they are not valid for previously purchased tickets and cannot be combined with any other offer.
 
JazzBoston members also receive discounts at these venues:
 
  • Scullers Jazz Club, a Boston fixture since 1989 and frequent winner of "Best of" polls, located in the Doubletree Guest Suites Boston, overlooking the Charles River
  • The Regattabar, which has drawn crowds and awards to its location at The Charles Hotel in Cambridge since 1985
  • Ryles, a musical fixture in Cambridge's Inman Square for decades and one of the area's most popular Sunday jazz brunch destinations
  • The Regent Theatre, known as Arlington's "Showplace of Entertainment," for all jazz and jazz-related events
  • The Amazing Things Arts Center, Framingham's magnet for a wide range of music, theater, and children's and family events, for jazz and jazz-related shows (JazzBoston members receive the same discount as Amazing's own, approximately 15%)
  • The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum for its Thursday evening jazz series, "Jazz at the Gardner," an eclectic mix of great performances in an extraordinary setting (discount applicable at all price levels, includes entry to the museum's three floors of galleries)
  • The Boston Pops, celebrating its 125th anniversary season, for jazz concerts at Symphony Hall
  • The Jazz Club at the Multicultural Arts Center, the beautiful cabaret-style club in the former Real Deal space in Cambridge
  • Brookline's Vernissage Restaurant on "Jazz Thursdays at Vernissage" evenings (Russian-influenced "global fusion" menu)
  • The Chianti Tuscan Restaurant and Lounge in Beverly, the North Shore's newest spot to hear live jazz, presented four nights a week
  • The Redline, in the heart of Harvard Square, for its Thursday night jazz series with the Joe McMahon Trio, 7 - 10 PM ("approachably stylish" casual cuisine).

For discounts at all these venues, just show your membership card at the door, or when calling for advance tickets, give your name and member number. Ticket discounts vary by venue, but most are $2.00. At venues without a cover charge, the discount, usually 10%, will be applied to your meal.

The Arts & Business Council of Greater Boston, which provides highly relevant support services to artists and arts organizations, offers JazzBoston members a 20% discount on a wide range of seminars, workshops, and webinars. To get information about a particular program or register online, email D'lynne Plummer, Director of Professional Development, and give her your membership number.
