About The Brubeck Institute
The Brubeck Institute was established by the University of the Pacific in 2000 to honor its distinguished alumni, Dave and Iola Brubeck. The mission of the Institute is to build on Dave Brubeck's legacy and his lifelong dedication to music, creativity, education, and the advancement of important social issues including civil rights, environmental concerns, international relations, and social justice. The Institute achieves its objectives through its five core programs which include the Brubeck Collection, Brubeck Festival, Outreach Program, Brubeck Fellowship Program, and the Summer Jazz Colony.
