“The Skidmore Jazz Institute is the finest summer program I have ever been affiliated with in my

36-year career.”-TODD COOlman , DIrECTOr

“Man, I am so blessed and thankful to have gone to Skidmore

Jazz Institute. I met so many awesome people and had so many

unforgettable experiences. I definitely became a better

musician and discovered a few non-music-related things as well.

This was worth it.”-JEFFEry mIllEr, 2012
