The Arkansas Jazz Heritage Foundation (which sponsors and maintains the Arkansas Jazz Hall of Fame) supports the ongoing historic preservation project at Dreamland Ballroom/Taborian Hall (which currently shares space with Arkansas Flag and Banner) because of the venue's connection to Arkansas's rich jazz heritage. The last original structure still standing on Little Rock's historic West 9th Street, Taborian Hall is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In addition to the legendary Dreamland Ballroom on the third floor, there is an informal performance space (indoors but open to the street) in the area dubbed “Doc's” on the ground level. Each November a “Dancing into Dreamland” fundraiser for the historic preservation project is held in the ballroom. Photos and details about the venue (available for rental) and the historic preservation project are provided at www.dreamlandballroom.org and on Dreamland Ballroom's Facebook page.
