In honor of Black History Month, join us for an afternoon of Black music history and performance from Hannah Mayree of the Black Banjo Reclamation Project, with special guests! 

The Black Banjo Reclamation Project (BBRP) is a group of musicians and performers employing a multitude of tactics to advance African American and Black life through the pursuance of the traditional folk musical practices relating to the banjo. BBRP is a cultural institution focused on reinstating and reconnecting Black people with African-based, diasporic cultural traditions of the banjo in local communities and around the world. Our healing comes from creating spaces for Black artists to thrive as we pursue the banjo— a historically Black and African communication and spiritual technology.

No registration required; bring your loved ones and see you there!
