For EVERY $500, one child gets a full year of classes & the child’s end of year costume.
Ghost had a way of seeing the world that was unique and captivating. Through his art and poetry, he shared his perspective, inspiring us to see the beauty and the depth in human emotions. His art was more than just carvings or words on a page – it was a reflection of his soul. It was a glimpse into his thoughts and life experiences. A reminder of the power of creativity to connect us.
“He was so curious and full of imagination and one of the most creative human beings I’ve ever met. … He was a poet among poets…” Kenny Chesney
“My wish is that his legacy will live on & his words will whisper through the streets and shores of St John. We can find solace in knowing that Curtney is dancing among the stars, pen in hard composing celestial verses.” Logan Fox
A writer, poet, photographer, master roller-skater, martial artist, teacher, storyteller, friend, and father. Ghost was someone who left his mark in all he met without prejudice or fears. Ghost’s wish was to see the children of St John continue to learn, experience and develop ART, all types of creativity. We can honor his legacy by sponsoring the children of St John in the Arts.
