    This bear celebrates the vibrant legacy of jazz as a distinctly African American music style.

    Developed by Black musicians in late 19th century New Orleans, jazz draws from both African and European influences. Its unmistakable sound is characterized by complex harmonies, syncopated rhythms, and improvisation.

    By the 1920s, jazz was a full-fledged cultural phenomenon, influencing nearly every aspect of American life from fashion to social movements.

    Jazz has inspired generations of musicians and continues to evolve today.
