John was a longtime supporter of ZUMIX, and as an artist himself, he cared deeply about young people having access to art, music, creativity, and a safe and welcoming space to be themselves. He was an extraordinary man who lived his life in an unconventional way with a gift for making everyone feel seen, welcomed, and cared for. He would have been very touched by the idea of helping young people find that same sense of freedom, expression, and belonging. Thank you for honoring John in this meaningful way.
