Event Details

Saturday, February 20 at 2:00pm.

The Blues and Beyond tells the story of African Americans in the United States from slavery to the present day by exploring and documenting, music, videos, narration and illustrations, the evolution of African American music alongside U.S. history. From field hollers and camp meetings to old spirituals to the Blues to the popular genres of today, music is the means by which African Americans have told their story.” The program is delivered using Zoom webinar and allows viewers to interact with the program performers and narrators.

This is an East End Libraries Event with the North Shore Public Library.
