The story

Jazz in June in Norman

Jazz in June is a free, three-day jazz festival held each June at Andrews Park in Norman, Oklahoma, produced by a local nonprofit with support from the Norman Arts Council and other regional funders. The festival pairs evening concerts from touring and regional jazz artists with daytime educational workshops hosted through the Norman public library system, positioning the city as a seasonal hub for jazz in Oklahoma.

Jazz in June grew out of a straightforward civic idea: that Norman, Oklahoma, a college town with a strong University of Oklahoma music program, deserved a dedicated public showcase for jazz, offered free and open to the whole community rather than confined to ticketed clubs or campus recitals.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

What distinguishes Jazz in June is its combination of free, high-caliber evening concerts with genuine educational programming built into the same festival weekend

02

The mystery stays covered

Daytime workshops, hosted with the Pioneer Library System at Norman public library branches, let attendees meet and learn directly from the same musicians who perform on the main stage that night, an unusually direct link between performance and instruction for a festival of its size

03

The city starts moving

Funded through a mix of arts councils, tribal and foundation support, and community donors, the festival has positioned itself explicitly as a civic institution rather than a commercial concert series, with organizers describing its goal as making Norman a recognized center for jazz in Oklahoma
