The Original 64th Street Drummers and South Side Jazz Coalition
The Original 64th Street Drummers brought drum circles to neighborhoods across the city as a means to promote peace. “Drumming brings command, and it also brings calm. You can use any open air space to create your best, to bring peace and eradicate violence,” says Juliet Jones. The South Side Jazz Coalition is a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to preserving the history and legacy of south side jazz, cultivating safe spaces for free access to live music programs and cultural events, working as an arts agitator with a strong commitment to Chicago artists and providing community service to the underserved population of the South Side of Chicago
