August 29th 2009 in Malibu, CA

A fusion of art and jazz, the Gatsby Jazz Festival features the work of JWA artist Albert Cleophus Willis as well as performances by select jazz artists at the beautiful Malibu Country Club.

Jeph Willis Arts has also joined forces with the Homeless Artist’s Local Forum’s founder Kevin Johnson, and San Francisco Recovery Theatre’s Director, Geoffrey Grier. He has dedicated his unique, business-savvy talent & resources to the Los Angeles Recovery Theatre. The Theatre is predicated on the hope that, by providing a support group for performing and fine artists in recovery, one can help create an environment of stability. This, in turn, can be the spring board to reintegrating these individuals into mainstream society.
