Program Description

Event Details

This program will be offered VIRTUALLY. 

A recording will be available for registrants to view for 7 DAYS following the program.

In Detroit in the 1960's Motown Records produced hits as efficiently as the Ford Motor Company produced automobiles - 110 Top Ten hits to be exact!  It was the "Sound of Young America" sung by performers like The Supremes, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder.  Using audio and visual content we'll trace the amazing musical journey from the power soul of "Dancing in The Streets" and "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" to the psychedelic soul of "Cloud Nine" and "What's Going On" to the pop soul of The Jackson 5. 

Celebrate Black History Month with us by commemorating the timeless music that moved us then and moves us now.
