Introducing our #mjf2025 30th celebratory edition

Introducing our #mjf2025 30th celebratory edition zine designed & curated by artist @kaitlynb.jpeg ! 💥 Because jazz really is everywhere… 👐

Kaitlyn Brockley is a photographic artist exploring themes of nostalgia, introspection
& feminism. Her latest work “Jazz is” commemorates manchester jazz festival in its
30th year, using the zine format & DIY methods to represent & celebrate the
grassroots jazz scene in Manchester. Riso-printed & hand-stitched, the zine aims to
define jazz using the words, inspired by the Youth Advisory Board’s “Jazz is Everywhere” initiative 🫶
