The Laura (Riding) Jackson Foundation mission is to preserve and interpret the home of the late poet, Laura (Riding) Jackson, and to promote literary programs
that nurture a passion for the written word. Laura (Riding) Jackson, widely noted avant-garde poet of the 1920s and 1930s,
settled in Indian River County in the latter part of her life in a “cracker” style house built around 1910. The home was bequeathed
to the Foundation for preservation and restoration, and as a focal point for the study of literature, philosophy and history.
The home is an example of a disappearing architectural style and a symbol of an older, more environmentally sensitive way
of life.
The National Poetry Foundation for the Conference and transfer of literary responsibilities to Cornell University Library, December 2010, according to the
terms of Laura (Riding) Jackson's will.
