Wishing a Happy Mother’s Day to all of the incredible mothers in our community!💐

During yesterday's celebration, we focused on self-care, healing, and support for all that mothers do for their families. Filled with laughter, heartfelt moments, and meaningful conversations, it was a beautiful opportunity for our community to come together and uplift one another.

We were honored to welcome guest speaker Amber Nazneen, who acknowledged the many sacrifices and responsibilities mothers carry while encouraging them to prioritize their own well-being.

We also took a moment to wish our Founder & CEO, Bob Guarasci, a happy birthday! 🎂

Paterson youth continue to do big things!

Congratulations to Eastside High School junior and member of NJCDC's Paterson Youth Council Ashley Gaibor for winning the @newjerseyhalloffame’s 2026 high school essay contest with her submission on NJCDC’s Cristina Tone.

Ashley’s moving recognition of Cristina’s work uplifting Paterson students is a beautiful reminder that leadership leaves lasting impressions.

From Ashley's essay: "When a young girl sees that a woman can hold a leadership position in an important organization and dedicate her career to improving the lives of others, she begins to imagine new possibilities for her own future. Cristina Tone represents the idea that success is not only measured by personal achievements, but by the positive impact we leave on our community."

We’re honored to celebrate both Ashley’s outstanding achievement and Cristina’s continued dedication to creating opportunities that transform lives.

For one unforgettable night, NJCDC’s Rogers Hall became a portal to jazz history.

Last week’s 𝘈𝘭𝘭 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘑𝘢𝘻𝘻 concert — part of our free fourth Friday jazz series — delivered an extraordinary tribute to Miles Davis at 100, as the Mario Giordano Trio honored the genius, evolution, and enduring influence of one of music’s greatest innovators.

From cool jazz to boundary-pushing fusion, the evening was a powerful reminder that truly great music doesn’t just endure — it continues to inspire across generations.

Thank you to the Mario Giordano Trio, Prototype Productions, and all of our guests for helping make this growing series such a vibrant part of Paterson’s cultural life.

We’d love to see you at our next show on Friday, May 22. Get details at: bit.ly/allthisjazz
