The Office of Academic Affairs, in partnership with Streetlight Guild and the Johnstone Fund for New Music, proudly presents a free concert about the South Side of Columbus.
Featuring music, poetry and dance, Southern Oracles provides an opportunity to enjoy some of Columbus’ finest homegrown talent, while also learning about the neighborhood’s institutions, history and culture.
In hosting the concert on campus, the organizers’ hope is that university students, faculty and staff will learn more about a unique section of the city in which we all live.
Performing artists include the Mark Lomax Trio, J. Rawls, Sam Johnson, Liquid Crystal Project, DJ Prime, Trista Hill, Trek Manifest, Jai Carey, Psyonik, Donald Isom and Scott Woods.
All events are subject to change.
