Welcome! You've found our page to honor the silliest boy who ever was: James Conklin. Our original mission was to award the means for aspiring comedians to attend the iO Summer Intensive. As of April 2020, we have expanded our mission to support individuals in the Chicago community at large through direct giving. Help us with our current project by clicking the "Donate to Support the iO House Staff" button above! We will eventually be offering training scholarships again. Please check in on our social media pages for this announcement!
9/3/2020 Announcement: The JCMS Board is extremely grateful for all of the generous donations to the scholarship and to the new GoFundMe dedicated scholarship for IO employees who were recently laid off. We have already been able to award $200 to over 50 employees! Thanks to each and every one of you.
And our heartfelt congratulations to Board Member Connor Barry and his finance, Lucy Bonczar, on their upcoming wedding on September 20, 2020 in York, Maine. Congratulations, Connor & Lucy!
