Introducing Our Jackson Home’s “Made in Jackson” issue

For the Fall 2023 Journal, we’re inviting you to create it with us.

We want to know who your favorite Jackson makers are. 

Who are these makers? Makers are people who build our collective environment. They create innovative solutions to our most challenging problems. 
They might go unrecognized, but quietly build our collective Jackson identity behind the scenes.

Jackson makers make stuff happen.

So we want to know - who are your favorite Jackson makers? Why? Let's tell their stories together. Nominate your favorite makers or join as an issue sponsor to celebrate the people who are making our city.

We’ll celebrate these makers with a Launch Party on October 24 at Hub City Brewing with a night of live music and storytelling.

NOMINATIONS CLOSE FRIDAY, AUGUST 18

CATEGORIES

Who is making Jackson’s culture? Who are the artists, writers, musicians, actors, filmmakers, designers, architects, photographers and more who show us new ways of hearing and seeing our city and our neighbors?

Who is making community in Jackson? Who is connecting us and building our sense of community through events, spaces, or other endeavors? 

Who is making change in Jackson? Who is advocating for and acting to shape the future of the people who call Jackson home?

Who is making Jackson’s culinary scene? It’s more than just eating and drinking — who creates dishes and drinks that encourage creativity and experimentation, showcase the cultural and regional aspects of food, and bring us together around the table?
