You can come to explore our home in the city. Registration for tours is available online by searching for the "Discover the Arts" tours.

GW Jive (Fridays from 3-4:50pm)
GW JIVE is the university's vocal jazz ensemble made up of music majors, minors and students who just love to sing, perform and learn about music. We sing in a variety of different genres including Brazilian Bossa Nova, R&B, Blues and Swing with an emphasis on authentically representing each style's culture as accurately as possible so our audiences can feel and enjoy the groove and the sounds we create. Come and experience the fun and culture!
Friday Jazz Jams
The jazz jams are an informal, student-run event every Friday at 5 pm, where students and community members can play around, listen, and learn in a group setting. We welcome all listeners, performers, families and prospective students to engage with the vibrant community of students, faculty, and friends of the GW Music Program.
