The Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame was created by the Oklahoma State Legislature in 1988 with legislation authored by State Senators Maxine Horner and Penny Williams. The OJHF is a statewide non-profit 501(c) 3 organization.
The OJHF arts programs are made possible with generous support from the Oklahoma Arts Council, American Airlines, Williams, Downtown Doubletree Hotel, TulsaPeople Magazine, GTR Newspaper, SPIRITBANK, FOX23 News, Clear Channel Broadcasting, Cherokee Casino, Oklahoma Eagle Newspaper, Dallayz Limousine, and other committed sponsors.
The mission of the Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame is to inspire creativity and improve the quality of life for all Oklahomans through preservation, education and performance of jazz, our uniquely American art form.
We honor and pay tribute to the many Oklahoma musicians and artists who have made significant contributions to the fabric of music and music education in the state of Oklahoma, and all around the world. The Lifetime Achievers and Living Legends are international artists we also honor for their musical excellence, cultural achievement and originality.
