The Jamaican Museum and Cultural Center is thrilled to open our live Brick Buying Campaign to the public! This initiative is not just a fundraiser; it’s a chance for each of us to leave a legacy, celebrating our vibrant Jamaican heritage and culture right here in Georgia.
Let’s take a moment to reflect on an inspiring example from right here in Atlanta’s history. In the lead-up to hosting the 1996 Olympic Games, Atlantans came together to fund the construction of Centennial Olympic Stadium through a series of creative campaigns, including the selling of commemorative bricks. Those bricks became symbols of unity, pride, and belief in a shared vision.
Similarly, our Brick Buying Campaign gives each of you the opportunity to cement your support into the foundation of something extraordinary. Imagine walking through the grounds of the Jamaican Museum and Cultural Center and seeing your name—or the name of a loved one—etched into a brick, standing as a testament to your commitment to preserving our culture for generations to come.
Whether you choose to buy a brick to honor your family, celebrate a milestone, or simply declare, “Jamaica is the biggest little country on earth, an irresistible brand that is worth showcasing to the world,” your contribution will help us lay the groundwork for a space that inspires, educates, and connects our community to the rest of the world. This $10 million dollar project will be a coveted legacy for our community and a gift to the city of Atlanta."
Be among the first to set the foundation of a monument that will preserve the rich Jamaican culture and create a lasting memory for generations to come. Let us build this legacy together.
