Support EMIT and the
St. Petersburg Jazz Festival!
I'm David Manson, director of the St. Petersburg Jazz Festival and the parent nonprofit arts organization, EMIT. EMIT has a Silver rating in GuideStar and has presented over 500 concerts & workshops since inception in 1995.
We are rethinking our approach to concert production and need your help.
We would like to schedule 6 free concerts for the public that are underwritten by sponsors this season. Audience numbers for jazz following the pandemic have been down and venue rentals have increased by as much as 50%. Your donation will revitalize our audience base as we look for alternative performance spaces. We have venue commitments for free concerts already from the Museum of American Arts and Crafts Movement, the Warehouse Arts District and St. Petersburg College. See what we can offer for your donations, below.
Feel free to contact me and I'll call you or meet with you to discuss our new concert approach. My email is mansond@spcollege.edu and my telephone is (727) 341-4363
. You can give directly via PayPal below, through GoFundMe or I will be glad to meet with you.
