 The Hilberry Gateway Performing Arts Center

4715 Cass Ave, Detroit, MI 48202

Friday, January 12, 2024

Program 10:00am-12noon 

Our theme for 2024 is Arts, Culture and Music of the Movement. We are delighted that Santita Jackson, political analyst, radio and TV host, and internationally recognized vocalist will serve as our special guest on Friday. Ms. Jackson continues the legacies of Rev. Dr. King and her father and mother, Rev. and Mrs. Jesse Jackson, by educating about voting rights and advocating for civil and human rights. The lessons she learned as a child growing up under these influences are still relevant today.

On Friday, January 12, Arts, Culture, and Music of the Movement will feature presentations, music, and dance followed by a conversation with Ms. Jackson. We also will present the Dr. Arthur L. Johnson Community Leadership Awards honoring an individual and an organization exemplifying Dr. Johnson’s commitment to community and making a positive difference in Detroit and beyond.
