If you were not present for the Bruce R. Watkins Cultural Heritage Center's 'Tis the Season - a Motown Christmas' on Friday, December 7, you all missed a treat. The ambiance was similar to a Jazz Club where prominent KC residents sat and were entertained by Darcus Gates, back up singers and band. Darcus sang hit singles from the Motown group the "Supreme's" as well as popular Motown Christmas songs. Darcus can SING! I've never heard of her before until that night but I was indeed impressed. I was glad to see LeShea Wright and Dre on stage with her. Dre, you and Jason impressed me by switching from piano to electric guitar - totally talented!
'Tis' the Season - a Motown Christmas!' is the 2nd annual fundraising event for the Bruce R. Watkins Cultural Heritage Center in Kansas City, Mo. Kudos to Jesse Barnes, Executive Director of the BRWCHC and his board for pulling together a beautiful event. Take some time out of your day to stop by the BRWCHC to see the Supreme's exhibit. You won't be disappointed.
