The National Endowment for the Arts, in collaboration with SFJAZZ, will honor 2020 NEA Jazz Masters Bobby McFerrin, Roscoe Mitchell, Reggie Workman, and Dorthaan Kirk - who is the recipient of the A.B. Spellman NEA Jazz Masters Fellowship for Jazz Advocacy - with the nation's highest honor in jazz. This free-to-the-public concert event will feature performances by stars of the jazz world. As is has been in past years, the concert will be available to worldwide audiences via a live webcast.
