Jazz magic happens at Sunday jam sessions at this Detroit venue
On a typical Sunday night at Aretha’s Jazz Café, the music comes first, the lessons sneak in and the community does the rest. The venue's Sunday evening educational jazz jam sessions are celebrating their 10th anniversary in 2026 — a milestone that underscores how a simple idea, done well and done consistently, can leave a lasting mark. The sessions are curated by their creator, Scott Gwinnell, Music Hall’s music education director and lead teaching artist. For arts institutions juggling tight budgets and big expectations, measuring impact can be elusive. Not every program lands where it’s intended. But after a decade of weekly jams, the success of Music Hall’s Sunday series is evidenced by its longevity, its growing audience and the musicians who keep coming back.

Participants have access to online resources, hands-on coaching and personalized guidance that touches on both musical development and career pathways. The result is a learning environment that feels equal parts classroom, workshop and hang. Each year, more than 150 musicians take part,
