Join local jazz vocalist and educator Shantel Hubert for a multi-faceted tribute to the great American poet, playwright, novelist, Harlem Renaissance artist, Langston Hughes. Through original musical performances, poetry, and lecture, Hubert will explore Hughes’ powerful words and draw us closer together around his continued relevance amid contemporary calls for social and racial justice. This virtual event will feature professionally recorded performances shot inside the Michener Art Museum, an audience Q&A, as well as special guest performances by students of the George School in Newtown, PA.  

The Michener Art Museum hosts School Lane Charter for a viewing of The Intersection Between the Veiled and the Masked: A Tribute to Langston Hughes. Following the preview, students in the IB program will share their creative work inspired by Hughes and the Harlem Renaissance. A Q & A with Shantel Hubert will follow.
