Jazz as an art form born in America, and Alabama's part in its story, is the focus of the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame in Birmingham. Its stated mission is to cultivate appreciation of jazz as a legitimate, original and distinctive art form, and to illuminate the state's contribution through its people, environment, demographics and lore.
The nonprofit organization was founded in 1978 and opened as a museum on September 18, 1993. It works both as a music museum and as a hall of fame dedicated to keeping the heritage of jazz alive. It suits visitors interested in jazz history and in Alabama's place in American music.
