Katowice JazzArt Festival is an international, interdisciplinary festival dedicated to improvised music, organised by the institution Katowice of Gardens since 2012. The festival is a member of Europe Jazz Network. The program specialises in the young European scene, projects combining music and other art forms and social activities. Since 2020 we have developed a complex program for artistic residencies and exchanges (with Novara Jazz, Jazzkaar, BMC etc.). Since 2017 the festival became the very first Polish member of Keychange initiative that guarantees gender balance in the program.
