The Jazz Kitchen, located in Indianapolis, Indiana, has been a significant venue for jazz and related musical genres since its founding in 1994. Originally established by David Baker, an acclaimed jazz educator and musician at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), the venue aimed to provide a dedicated space for both established and emerging jazz artists. It operated initially as a restaurant with live music before transitioning to primarily a concert venue. The Jazz Kitchen has hosted numerous nationally and internationally recognized jazz performers throughout its history, becoming a central hub for the city’s jazz community. In 2020 it relocated to the Broad Ripple Village neighborhood after facing challenges at its original location.
