Year Round Programs

The VJC will host a new ten-week session of classes beginning the week of February 10th. This semester the jazz center will offer something for everyone. New courses include an expanded youth program for youth ages 10 - 16 as well as expanded ensemble opportunities. Consider joining an ensemble to perform under the keen eye of our professional faculty. Perhaps you're interested in Latin Rhythms, our class with Cuban percussionist William Rodriguez is an ideal opportunity. Guitarists will find expanded opportunities to study with Draa Hobbs in his Guitar Workshop!
No one will be turned away due to lack of funds, please call the jazz center to find out about scholarship and extended payment options. Scholarship assistance available thanks to a generous grant from the Thompson Trust.
All ages are welcome!
Please feel free to call office manager, Jane Findlay if you'd like to sign up for one of our educational programs. For specific questions regarding class content speak with Eugene Uman. To contact the VJC by phone: 802 254-9088, by email: info@vtjazz.org. Their web address is www.vtjazz.org.
