Museum of Contemporary Art
You are cordially invited to join us for an evening in celebration of the life and legacy of John T. Jackson. Our second annual Chicago Celebration will be held at the Museum of Contemporary Art from 8:00pm to 12:00am. Our 2011 beneficiary is the Judd Goldman Adaptive Sailing Foundation (JGASF), which provides classroom and on-water instruction for the physically disabled. John was an avid sailor and proceeds will go towards the purchase of a 2.4 metre adaptive sailboat for the JGASF fleet in Chicago.
