Spark visits with arts organizations that have been supporting the Bay Area art community for decades and the people that keep them alive. Founded in 1973, Ashkenaz is an East Bay music and culture venue that specializes in live roots music and international folk dancing every night of the week. Every summer since 1967, Harriet and Jim Schlader have produced and directed classic American musical theater for the Woodminster Summer Musicals in Oakland's Joaquin Miller Park. Then head south to Santa Cruz's Kuumbwa Jazz Center (kuumbwajazz.org), celebrating its 28th year as the West Coast's oldest year-round jazz performance venue and education center.
