For decades, the Jazz Foundation of America’s Monday Night Jam has provided a welcoming bandstand for musicians of all generations. Since 2024, it has occurred monthly on 4th Mondays at the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, under the cool and steady leadership of Queens native Kim Clarke, a sought-after bassist best known for her long associations with jazz legend Bertha Hope, the influential funk group Defunkt, and the long-running Lady Got Chops Festival, which she founded. This special CPJF edition features saxophonists Roxy Coss and Anita Rush.

Supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York Legislature and by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and by the Howard Gilman Foundation.
