The Mabel Mercer Foundation was established in 1985 to preserve and advance an endangered part of American musical heritage: the intimate art of Cabaret performance and the Great Songbook of its repertoire. Through sponsorship of live performances and broadcasts, the Foundation endeavors to entertain and educate a public raised on mass-produced pop music, to stem the effects of shrinking music education budgets, and to encourage practitioners in the present-day cabaret field. Named after Mabel Mercer, arguably the supreme cabaret artist of the twentieth century, the Foundation also functions as a central source of information for artists, presenters, promoters, and the general public about Ms. Mercer and the art form she exemplified. Jason Martin currently serves as Operations Director, Rick Meadows as Managing Director, KT Sullivan as Artistic Director, and Charles Bullock as Board Chairman. The Mabel Mercer Foundation presents its flagship Cabaret Convention showcases around the country and abroad. The 30th Annivesary New York Cabaret Convention festival of song will take place at Jazz At Lincoln Center October 28-31, 2019.
