Join award-winning Illinois folksinger Chris Vallillo for a performance of pivotal songs from the music that inspired and sustained the civil rights movement. The show is performed on multiple instruments (acoustic and electric guitars, dobro, steel guitar, and Mandolin plus vocals) and includes historically accurate first-person accounts of the music and how it impacted the Civil Rights Movement. Presented in partnership with Illinois Humanities, a statewide nonprofit organization that activates the humanities through free public programs, grants, and educational opportunities that spark conversation, foster reflection, build community, and strengthen civic engagement for everyone in Illinois.
