On May 6th, 2007 nearly 300 local jazz musicians met on the steps of Seattle's City Hall for a photograph in the spirit of Art Kane's 1958 “A Great Day in Harlem."

Pulitzer-Prize winning photographer Daniel Sheehan captured the event as the musicians who cross jazz music's many generational and stylistic boundaries were photographed together for the first time in Seattle's legendary jazz music history.



On October 1st, 2007 posters, as well as a very few limited-edition signed prints, will be made available to the public. All proceeds of sales will be donated to The MusicCares Foundation, which provides a safety net of critical assistance for music people in times of need. The MusiCares Foundation is an affiliated charitable entity of The Recording Academy.



Ordering information can be found on our website, as well as information for participants detailing how and where they may pick up their posters.
