A Jackson Museum In Gary?
July 23rd, 2008
Gary, Indiana (USA) could soon be the site of a museum devoted to one of the most famous family’s in music – The Jackson’s! This was one of the topics discussed with Joseph Jackson and Gary Mayor Rudy Clay on Mr. Jackson’s visit back to Gary on July 22, 2008. Clay explained that there had been previous discussions to exhibit some of the Jackson family memorabilia in Gary; all of which were unsuccessful.
“We had to get a commitment solid from Joe here today. We got that on camera,” Clay said. Asked whether he got the commitment in writing, Clay said, “Let me put it like this, the paperwork has to come after the commitment.”
Although the project developer would not directly comment on the project, she did indicate that the project is still in the early stages of development and that the museum would be located Grant Street and Interstate 80/94.
