- "How fitting that this fundraiser takes place in Greenwich Village, where Kerouac
felt at home in a community of post World War II artists. It is that artistic and
inclusive spirit we honor every day at the Kerouac Project in Orlando." Bob Kealing,
co-founder, The Kerouac Project.
-
- A percentage of the proceeds will support The Jack Kerouac Writer-in-Residence Project
of Orlando, Florida, home to nearly fifty writers since the Fall of 2000. Each competes
with a worldwide pool of applicants to live and create, rent-free, for three months at a
time. The Kerouac Project is a registered 501(c)(3) non profit group and operates solely
on tax deductible donations. www.kerouacproject.org
