Partnerships That Make Music Happen
At WAYJO, partnerships are more than sponsorship – they’re collaborations that create real opportunities for young musicians to grow, perform, and connect with communities. Through partnerships, we can fund educational programs, support international exchanges, and deliver unique music experiences that might not otherwise be possible.
Program partnerships
Every partnership helps shape the next generation of jazz artists and ensures that live jazz reaches audiences across Perth, regional WA, and beyond. Some of our inspiring partnerships include:
North West Shelf Gas

Principal sponsor of the SHOWAYJO Exchange Program between WAYJO and Showa University of Music in Japan, running since 2013. This program is now in its 11th year, showing the impact a committed partner can have on young artists’ development.
CircuitWest (DLGSC)

CircuitWest through DLGSC has supported ‘5 Steps Forward: Empowering Narrogin Youth Through Music Making’ since 2024, providing regional young people with hands-on music experiences, mentorship and performance opportunities.
