With "Songs of Hope," Durham CAN has put together a powerful line-up of performers that represent much of the variety and strength of what Durham is. We are a multi-racial, multi-ethnic community. We have strong educational institutions. We have creative business leaders and civil servants. We have many styles and tastes. Songs of Hope aspires to display that range of life in Durham.
The list of performing artists includes
- Shukr7—a South Asian Folk band with a Bollywood sound
- Timothy Holley—cellist from NCCU
- Deja Blue—women’s a cappella singing group from Duke
- Latina Duet of Yolanda Correa and Victoria Perez—they promise to get us active
- Kadeisha Kilgore—liturgical dancer
- Terry Allebaugh—harmonica player
and, the headline act of the program - Lois Deloatch—internationally know jazz singer from Durham
"Songs of Hope" is a fundraising benefit concert for Durham CAN. Tickets are $30. There is much more work to be done on affordable housing, jobs that pay living wages, better schools and opportunities for youth, promoting fair policing and better police-community relationships, and safety and opportunity for all citizens of our county and city. This is important work, and Durham CAN steps up to take the lead again and again, bringing the power of thousands of people who care about one another and about our community. That's who we are. We bring together people from all across our county and city to make living in Durham better for all our residents. Please take this great opportunity to join others for an evening of entertainment and a contribution to the ongoing work of Durham CAN. You can order tickets online, or you can contact me for tickets as well.
