IOWA JAMFEST SERIES

The Iowa JamFest Series is a collective of outdoor or indoor concerts across the state hosted in regional areas of Iowa (e.g., Northwest, Southeast).
The purposes of the series are:
  1. To provide a performance opportunity for school music groups that don’t have a regular performance venue other than their school and community
  2. To showcase school music achievements that otherwise are limited to their school or community. 
  3. To reflect the musical culture of the region. Each concert will and should be different.
  4. To provide a performance opportunity that is inclusive to all students, regardless of ability.
