JEMS MISSION STATEMENT
● The Jay Entertainment and Music Society (JEMS) was organized in 1987 to provide entertainment and education to our community.
● As a not-for-profit organization, JEMS strives to connect the local and visiting community together through the Arts via music, dance, exercise, spoken word, theater, the visual arts, and community-based events.
● JEMS believes the Arts have the power to transform and transport people and ideas, evoke feelings, provoke thought and discourse and bring joy.
● JEMS provides a space for artistic expression and creativity, diverse programming, and public and private events.
● JEMS continues to evolve and welcomes all ideas and community members to our great facility and events.
● The JEMS Board strives to maintain these goals and objectives through volunteer efforts.
