MLK Remembrance Day Concert

Northern Michigan has several events planned around Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, Jan. 16—see our dates section for more—but one that caught our eye was the Building Bridges with Music annual MLK Remembrance Day program at City Opera House in Traverse City. On the stage for the evening will be soul jazz vocalist Joan Belgrave, R&B singer Mark Scott, spoken word artist Joel Fluent Greene, and The Lisa McCall Dancers. You’ll also get to catch a performance by Traverse City’s own NMC Canticum Novum, the premier vocal ensemble in northern Lower Michigan, under the direction of Jeffrey Cobb. The event starts at 7pm on Jan. 16, and tickets are FREE but do require reservation through the City Opera House. (Note: Seating will be limited due to COVID restrictions and masks are encouraged.) More information about the program can be found at buildingbridgeswithmusic.org.
