UNION COUNTY PERFORMING ARTS CENTER Rahway NJ
Momentum: Voices For Change addresses the unique obstacles that black artists face, recognizes the important contributions that the Black community has had on the world of arts and theatre, and most importantly it celebrates the talent, love, and beauty of the black community we have here in Union County.
"Momentum implies movement, continuation of progress, and a potential energy source fueling that movement. Together we are establishing this gathering not as a first step but as a continuation of our mission statement with a more focused cadence, a more deliberate pace, and a more fervent attention to the detailed call to action that the arts community needs from us. We hope that this expression allows all of us to lead as we listen and educate as we learn; to stand for what we believe in, stand against what we eradicate, and stand beside our brothers and sisters each and every day from this day forth"
We have decided to make Momentum: Voices For Change an ongoing series, we hope you join us each month as we celebrate the amazing talents of the Black performers in our community.
