Join us for a virtual conversation with the legendary Apollo Theater!

Since 1934, The Apollo has celebrated, created, and presented work that centers Black artists and voices from across the African Diaspora. It has also been a catalyst for social and civic advocacy. Today, The Apollo is the largest performing arts institution committed to Black culture and creativity.

The Apollo's artistic vision is grounded in the celebration and development of Black culture and creativity. Programs re-envision The Apollo’s legacy in forward-looking and contemporary ways, create forums for emerging artists and curators, support mid-career and established artists, develop and present new and cutting-edge multi-disciplinary work, uplift culturally diverse artists and audiences, and create an intimate and engaged experience for audiences.

Join us on Thursday, December 12 to learn more about Apollo Theater’s work in uplifting and preserving Black history, culture, and creativity throughout NYC!

Black Historic Sites in Conversation is a series of virtual talks in collaboration with different Black heritage sites & cultural centers in the greater NYC area, about the ongoing work of preserving, interpreting, and celebrating Black history and historical figures.

This program is supported by the Mellon Foundation.
