Join us for the inaugural John Wesley Johnson Legacy Fundraiser, a night dedicated to honoring the extraordinary life and vision of John Wesley Johnson, a pioneer in media, storytelling, and community uplift.
​This evening will bring together changemakers, supporters, and friends for a powerful benefit concert featuring the world-renowned Rust College A’ Cappella Choir, whose voices carry both the spirit of tradition and the promise of the future.
​Proceeds will directly support the Rust College A’ Cappella Choir and the John Wesley Johnson Legacy Fund, which provides scholarships and resources for students in Mississippi, attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities like Rust College.
