As part of the JSO Sound Vision Campaign and remodel plan, it was deemed a good idea to have a Kiosk in front of the building to inform pedestrian traffic and those using the building as to what is happening primarily with the JSO and those groups who "live" at 215 W. Michigan Ave. These groups which includes the Jackson Youth Symphony Orchestra, the Jackson Chorale, the Michigan Shakespeare Festival, Cascade Harmonizers,Community Strings and Jammin’ at the JSO. Bob LaZebnik JSO board member and Honorary Chair of the Campaign offered to donate the design, construction and installation of the work in front of the JSO. Don Harris designed the kiosk, Stan Riske built it and Alro Steel donated the steel. The city council formally approved the request to install on September 14th and the following morning it was installed. In addition to being a very attractive piece of art it will serve well communicating downtown and performing arts activities.
