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.

Membership Partners

JazzBoston's three newest Membership Partners bring our roster of participating clubs, restaurants, and museums to twelve. 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.

The 500-seat Regent Theatre, known as Arlington's "Showplace of Entertainment," is offering JazzBoston members discounts on tickets to all jazz and jazz-related events, including the spectacular celebration of International Tap Dance Day on May 22. The Regent is located at 7 Medford Street in Arlington.
 
The Amazing Things Art Center, 160 Hollis Street, Framingham, is offering JazzBoston members the same discount as its own members — approximately 15% off tickets to jazz and jazz-related shows. In addition to presenting a wide range of music, theater, and children's and family events, Amazing Things houses an art gallery featuring a variety of special exhibits. Also, every Tuesday from 8 to 11 p.m. the Center hosts a jazz jam.
 
The Chianti Tuscan Restaurant & Jazz Lounge is the North Shore's newest spot to hear live jazz. Located at 285 Cabot Street in Beverly, the venue has received high praise for its food and ambience since it opened in 1992 and recently added jazz four nights a week, Thursday to Sunday. JazzBoston members receive a 10% discount on dinner.
 
The Arts & Business Council of Greater Boston marshals business leaders and nonprofit experts to provide highly relevant support services to artists and arts organizations, including training workshops in marketing and other business disciplines, legal services, and technical assistance. JazzBoston members receive a 25% discount on a wide range of seminars, workshops, and webinars. To get the discount code for online registration, email Sheri Mason, Director of Legal Services, identify yourself as a JazzBoston member, and give your membership number.
 
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
  • The Beehive, arguably the South End's hippest nightspot
  • The Stork Club, one of the city's newest jazz venues, with live jazz and blues seven nights a week and a wide-ranging menu of appetizers, sandwiches, and entrees
  • Ryles, a musical fixture in Cambridge's Inman Square for decades and one of the area's most popular Sunday jazz brunch destinations
  • 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 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 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.
