On Friday August 24th at Guasti Park, we will kick off the weekend's events with "Celebrate Community Day...Voyage through Music." The event will cater to the needs of individuals with developmental disabilities from learning to health and their families. Organizations are encouraged to participate in this magical day dedicated to individuals with disabilities. Unite with us and celebrate their voyage into music and laughter. There will be local jazz talent, celebrity guest appearances and entertainment to bring community members together on this voyage. The day will be filled with family activities created for all ages and special fun for the Inland Empire's developmentally disabled population.

Mark Wood, Elements, Tim Bowman, Impromp2, Reno Jones, LA Mambo Combo, Althea Rene, and many more The music will include a diverse array of jazz styles including New Orleans, Mainstream, Jazz Fusion, Free Funk, Jazzpel and more.
Not only is the Inland Empire Jazz Festival a celebration of music, but also a commitment to raise awareness and funds for local charities. The Jazz festival has partnered with Operation REAPP who supports students K-12 who are developmentally delayed, the children's charities of SEBA (Firefighters and Peace Officers) and visually impaired residents in Southern California through the Blindness Support Services Inc. The sponsorship of these primary charities represents the forward progress the IEJF wants to sustain and develop throughout the community in the Inland Empire.
