SCLC Jazzspiration

As we approach the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday (Jan. 19), the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) held a Sprint Artist – “Jazzspiration a Celebration of Unity” concert on Friday evening at the KC Repertory - Spencer Theater on the UMKC campus. Approximately 200 guests (young and old) came out to hear Kansas City Boys & Kansas City Girls Choirs; James Ward Band; Poets Collective – Teianna Re-al Cooper, Ms. Mai, Purpose; Soul Serenade featuring Mia; and national gospel recording artist, James Fortune & Fiya.

There will be other photo highlights coming throughout the week and posted on our BLOG. Keep watching!
