JSJBF Monthly Membership Meetings

All JSJBF Members and prospective members are welcome!

If you want JSJBF to know WHO YOU ARE and that you're looking for work, this is the best way you can make your availability and skills known. You also can network with other artists and potentially venue owners that can help you out. This is one of the single most important things you can do to market your group (and you can have a great night out)!

Meetings are scheduled for the third Wednesday of the month....
See you there.
