School may be out, but this summer was busy for the Jacksonville Public Education Fund.
We have been working on a number of different projects, but by far the biggest will launch this fall. The details are coming together for the ONE by ONE campaign, which will be the biggest initiative in our history.
 
ONE by ONE will mobilize the community to speak out, and then unite behind a common vision for public education in Jacksonville.

It all kicks off with the ONE in THREE art exhibit at The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens on Riverside Avenue. The exhibit lifts the faces and voices of 20 current and former public school students. Their stories will ignite a series of conversations in the community-conversations that will include thousands of voices all over Jacksonville and form a road map to a better future for our city.
You can find out more about ONE campaign here.

Or, just go see it!

We are having a free community opening celebration at the museum Sept. 13 from 4 to 8 p.m.
Come out on Sept. 13 to see the exhibit, add your voice, view performances and participate in activities for the whole family.
