The Jazz Kitchen, located in Indianapolis’ Broad Ripple Village neighborhood, has been a prominent venue for live jazz and other musical performances since its founding in 1994. Originally established by David Baker, a renowned jazz educator and performer at Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), the venue quickly became a central hub for both local and nationally touring jazz musicians. Over the years it has hosted numerous celebrated artists and continues to present a varied schedule encompassing jazz, blues, funk, soul, and world music. The space itself is designed to provide an intimate listening experience with a focus on showcasing the performers. It underwent renovations and reopened under new ownership in 2020, continuing its commitment to live music.
