Jazz in Newark, New Jersey developed from Newark's history of a large city with a significant African-American population near New York City, a center for jazz performance. The historical record of the development of jazz is maintained at the Institute of Jazz Studies at Rutgers University. Newark's jazz history has been the subject of a full-length book published in 1991.
