Nashville artist Jimmy Abegg is losing his sight. But you'd never know it. Other than not getting behind the wheel these days, he is pretty much moving on with his life, his art, and his love for friends and family. Abegg's generosity of spirit is legendary; the man always gives twice what he receives. So it's time for us to do the same for him.
Here's the plan: Build a studio in his back yard so that he no longer has to be driven to his studio across town to create his art. If you would like to contribute to the building fund, please go to: www.jimmyabegg.com/pages/build-blind-jimmys-lighthouse or send a donation to 141 Roberts Avenue, Nashville, TN 37206.
