Land Acknowledgement
We recognize that the City of Prairie Village sits on the ancestral land of the Kickapoo, Ocheti
Sakowin, Osage and Kansa tribes. This land is of great importance as these communities are still
living and breathing. Consistent with our values of community and inclusion, we have a
responsibility to acknowledge and honor these tribes.
A.
As we begin this event, we'd like to acknowledge the stewards of this land, the Kanza, Osage,
Kickapoo and Oceti Sakowin Nations. Sovereign nations whose traditional lands, stories, and
ancestors live within these lands.
We acknowledge their unjust removal from their lands, their continued resilience and
endurance.
We understand we are temporary residents and promise to treat the land and the
people that live on it with kindness and respect.

Committee Chair's Report
Prairie Village Jazz Fest 2026 was held September 12. Three of the five acts were able to perform
although there was rain during the second act, Nick Hmeljak’s Open Channel. Lightning forced the initial
postponement of the third act, Stephen Martin Quartet, subsequent heavy rain and the departure of
most attendees caused the Committee to recommend that the event be halted at approximately 6:45
pm. Net entry gate receipts totaled $3,305.50. Estimated costs to produce JazzFest 2026 are $51,500.
Final event costs are pending receipt of several final invoices.
Mike Polich communicated that he would be stepping down from the Committee but was happy to
continue to help during set up. Thank you, Mike for 15 years of service!
Talent
Because the final two acts, Stephen Martin Quartet and The Freedom Affair, were unable to perform,
the Committee suggests that both acts be invited to perform in their same lineup spots at the 2027
JazzFest, pending their availability.
