Description

This special evening is not to be missed! We begin in the Drendel Auditorium with actor Jordan Randall bringing Charles White to life through the artist’s own words as penned in an essay from 1955. White wrote that music “has remained one of the most important influences on my work.” Tiffany Napier is producing musical interludes highlighting some of the artists who inspired White: Mahalia Jackson, Harry Belafonte and Paul Robeson. The evening continues with viewing of the exhibition Charles White: A Little Higher in the museum’s galleries.
