Just Life

"Just Life" – a concert that transcends the realms of music to champion justice and illuminate the paths of those who've long been unheard. As we delve into the core of the justice system's intricate tapestry through hauntingly beautiful compositions, we lay bare the tales of resilience, survival, and the unbreakable spirit of those who have borne the weight of America's criminal justice practices. Compositions include music from Joel Thompson, Alexander Lloyd Blake, Roman Gianarthur, Frances Pollock, Stephen Trask, Dale Trumbore, and more. The stories – powerful, poignant, and profoundly human – transcend mere labels and actions to demonstrate the indomitable strength of community and the capacity to soar beyond the constraints of the past. So join us for an evening that promises more than music; it promises a transformation, an awakening, a call to action.

Their experiences, stories, and hopes are woven into a symphony of authenticity and empowerment. Through partnerships with organizations dedicated to education, we're setting the stage for a profound exploration of how each one of us can contribute to creating educational environments that nurture empathy, unity, and a more compassionate future. Join us for a concert that isn't afraid to ask the tough questions, isn't afraid to confront the challenges, and isn't afraid to dream of a world where education is a cornerstone of progress.
