John Jones Academic Association
18th Ward Aviation
Hub Project
At the John Jones Academic Association, we are committed to creating educational opportunities and promoting the development of the 18th Ward of Chicago, Illinois as a historical aviation site/district. We strive to provide the community with the tools and resources necessary to further their knowledge of aviation and become active participants in the preservation of the history of aviation in the 18th Ward. Through our courses, seminars, and research projects, we are dedicated to fostering a deeper understanding of the history of aviation and its impact on the development of the 18th Ward.
