The Airmen of Note is the premier jazz ensemble of the United States Air Force. It was created in 1950 to carry on the style of Glenn Miller’s Army Air Force dance band. Today, the Airmen of Note continues the innovative course initiated by Miller over seven decades ago. From Washington D.C., under the leadership of Chief Master Sergeant Brian MacDonald and the musical direction of Senior Master Sergeant Luke Brandon, SCF Performing Arts Center is honored to welcome The Airmen of Note to the Neel stage.

Since 1966, the SCF Neel Performing Arts Center has served as a cultural center for Manatee and Sarasota counties hosting both College and community-sponsored events. The main performance hall remodeled in 1999 features a 65 x 40 foot stage, seating for 830 patrons, as well as wheelchair accessible seating and restrooms. The magnificent Elizabeth M. Eaton Memorial Pipe Organ, a 50-rank, 3-manual instrument built by master craftsman Charles McManis, was rededicated in October 2000.
