Jazz Lectures
PDX Jazz Lectures are presented several times a year, most often in the offices of Literary Arts. Each lecture explores a particular subject and its relation to jazz in-depth. Recent lectures have been on topics such as Women in Jazz, Jazz and the Civil Rights Movement, and The History of Recording Techniques. This series takes shape as Jazz Conversations during the annual Festival, offering fans intriguing discussions on a myriad of topics with Festival artists.
